Anti-gun’ attorney arrested for gun at airport

A leading local civil rights attorney was arrested over the weekend at Cleveland Hopkins Airport for having a concealed handgun in his carry-on bag, The Plain Dealer reported Sunday. David Malik, the original attorney for the family of 12-year-old Tamir Rice who was slain by police in November, spent the night in jail after a .22 caliber handgun and a box of ammunition were discovered by airport security.

"What's interesting about David is he is such an anti-gun person," Steve Loomis, president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association, told the press. "He's such an anti-violence person, and of all the things for him to get arrested for, that really surprises me."

Perhaps he was to be on a new David Gregory show

NBC’s David Gregory is off the hook for showing a high-capacity gun magazine on “Meet the Press” and will not be prosecuted, D.C.’s attorney general announced on Friday.

D.C. attorney general Irvin Nathan on Friday said he would decline to prosecute in the case involving the Sunday show host and any NBC staffers. In a letter to NBC’s attorney Lee Levine, Nathan wrote that after reviewing the matter, his office “has determined to exercise its prosecutorial discretion to decline to bring criminal charges against Mr. Gregory, who has no criminal record, or any other NBC employee based on the events associated” with the broadcast.

The office made its decision “despite the clarity of the violation of this important law, because under all of the circumstances here a prosecution would not promote public safety in the District of Columbia nor serve the best interests of the people of the District to whom this office owes its trust.”

Not the first time a gun control advocate has been caught packing heat.

Perhaps by carrying a .22 he was hoping for a small charge when he went before the judge.

He's an idiot for breaking the law, but I'm not sure whats the big deal about someone suporting stricter gun control and also owning a gun. They are not mutually exclusive.

Remember the democrat Yee who was anti-gun but got busted for attempted arms smuggling?

Put it this way, it's like that episode of star trek where Kirk gets a super advanced computer to self destruct by pointing out a logical paradox.
