Anti-Gun activist breaks Gun Free Zone Law

[Rip Van Winkle]

I'll be the doesn't go to jail over this. He's already been defined as part of the ruling elite.

I'll go a step further and bet he won't even be charged.

As much as he deserves to serve 4 years, I fear you are correct.

he likely won't be charged.

If he is not charged we are no longer a country of laws and they don't care who knows. (not that they cared much before)

According to the article:

Ferguson was charged with two counts of criminal possession of a weapon under that law for Thursday’s incident. The law carries a maximum sentence of up to four years in state prison.

He was in the school for several hours after it was on lock down and was busted on the way out. There's no way he didn't realize at some point during that time that he was carrying, and reportedly lied to the police several times before they found it. He's pled innocent and was released without bail.

[Rip Van Winkle]

Care to bet that the charges will be dropped before he steps into a court room?

From NY statutes. Emphasis mine.

§ 265.01-a Criminal possession of a weapon on school grounds.
A person is guilty of criminal possession of a weapon on school
grounds when he or she KNOWINGLY has in his or her possession a rifle,
shotgun, or firearm in or upon a building or grounds, used for
educational purposes, of any school, college, or university, except the
forestry lands, wherever located, owned and maintained by the State
University of New York college of environmental science and forestry, or
upon a school bus as defined in section one hundred forty-two of the
vehicle and traffic law, without the written authorization of such
educational institution.
Criminal possession of a weapon on school grounds is a class E felony.

He's claiming he forgot. Looks like he lawyered up already and is using the media for disseminating disinformation.

He was charged Friday and pleaded non guilty.... no bail. He will be found innocent, and from that point on the defense will be called the "Dwayne Ferguson '...oh silly me, I forgot I was carrying...'" strategy.

I still think the NRA should jump in to help him It would be pure gold.

If he does get off, I'm quitting my day job to work full time developing the Schrodinger Holster System*. It's a box with a rotating cylinder inside. Attached to the cylinder are 2 holsters. One holster has room for your handgun, the other is weighted to accurately reproduce the physical characteristics of your handgun. Every morning you put your handgun in the empty holster, close the lid, and spin the cylinder. A sensor in the real holster is read by the Schrodinger Holster System as it spins, and subtle adjustments are made to the cylinder's spin to ensure that 99.9% of the time, the holster with your firearm ends up under the access hole. Since the holster completely covers the firearm, you never know if you're actually carrying your firearm until you attempt to unholster it, so you're not knowingly carrying it.

If you're not comfortable only carrying 99.9% of the time, consider ordering two Schrodinger Holster Systems and save 25%. If the cat's dead in your main holster, your backup gun will probably be there for you. Probably. Remember, you can't be sure, and you don't KNOW it's there.

I posted on the comments that the man rightfully should be executed for defiling the constitution. But, that he suffers under the illegal legislation, that he helped codify, will have to suffice. If the DA willfully neglects to prosecute, the citizens of NY should seize their offices, by force, if necessary. I'm sure those offices are in a gun free zone. How can he prosecute them if they won't prosecute Ferguson.

It happens all the time.

Never underestimate a persons ability to rationalize.

I wouldn't want that. Like them or not, laws are laws. I don't want to see the NRA defending someone who broke a law even if I dislike the law.

[tullibee]

I'd rather see the gun groups lobby to get this stooge the maximum penalty instead of spending money to defend him. then, after he's locked up, they could still have a nice poster boy to spotlight the stupidity of the law...

Suddenly his fellow travelers will be defending him by saying: "…but a good guy with a gun wouldn't hurt anyone…"

And we can lament a good citizen being locked up due to a bad law.

This is where "Can't fix stupid" really fits. He should be charged with all counts of felony, and well deserves it. More double standards from gun grabbers. We do what we want, but not for you you petty little citizens
