The “purchase delay” story has as happy an ending as can be expected when you consider all the prior restraint infringements.
“Ed” tells me via email:
Yesterday, Saturday, at around 4 pm, I received a call from [redacted] to inform me that he just received an email on behalf of “General” Bonta that it’s OK to release my HK! I arranged to pick it up later that evening and now have it in my possession…
…Notice, they CC’d the police but NOT to me, like it’s none of my business what they do related to me behind my back. And to date, still not a single response to my request for the documentation and so-called evidence they claimed to have, to which I, as “the accused” have a legal right to be presented with to see what the alleged “evidence” is that they used to make the libelous accusations of my “alleged criminal activity” and “firearms theft,” that they used to defame me…
…And, as ALL the guys that were there last night working the F/A counter told me about their customers having this same problem, I suggested that they tell those folks to look up your article and then contact AmmoLand to pass on their info.
Yeah, if it happens to you, let us know.
This appears to be yet another real-world example of those “false positives” the left viciously attacks John Lott for documenting. And the end of this story brings nothing to mind so much as Emily Litella realizing she’s wrong.
Ed’s just lucky Bonta didn’t deploy a shock team to confiscate what’s on his registration list. Just think how much more that will happen once Amalgamated finishes beta-testing its crystal ball.
