Man Saves Boy’s Life But Uses Unregistered Gun?

A Washington D.C. man, Benjamin Srigley, witnessed an 11 year old boy being attacked and mauled by 3 pit bulls in his neighborhood. He properly went inside his home and retrieved a handgun, and then fired his weapon killing one of the dogs. A police officer who was close by shot the other two.

The boy was bitten on his elbow, torso and leg, and has scars from that attack in January. The boy’s condition, while unfortunate, would have been much worse had Srigley not intervened and done the right thing.

But this story is more about Srigley not bowing to the state and having all his guns registered than it is about his saving the boy’s life. Authorities decided not to prosecute Srigley for the felonies of not having his firearms and ammunition registered. Some might think that this was out of kindness by the state apparatus, but it was most certainly only due to the very bad publicity and outrage that would have been evident had he been fully prosecuted.

Instead, he was fined $1,000.00 for saving this boy’s life. Normally, this could have included one year in jail to support the state sponsored prison system for profit. In addition, his guns and 100 rounds of ammunition were ceased (stolen) by police. They have agreed to give his two rifles back if he does not have any trouble with the law for the next two months, and of course if he registers his guns with the state gendarmes. I won’t hold my breath.

What will now happen due to this event? What will be the result of this fine and confiscation? The result may very well be that the next time a child, or anyone else for that matter, is in danger of being assaulted or losing their life, no one with any unregistered firearm or with any past dealings with the state sponsored cops in blue uniforms will come forward to save them.

In essence, the cops and courts were not able to put this man in prison for his “heinous” crime of not registering his firearms and ammunition, which would have been their desired goal, but they have put in harms way many other citizens. That really doesn’t matter to these cretins, but they have effectively set the stage for other’s safety to be ignored when dangerous circumstances occur in the future.
