I left California over 10 years ago and have not looked back...the gun laws there were really stupid.
Tonight...i get a text from one of my dear friends Chris saying "omg the **** has hit the fan with Paul(other hunting buddy..Chris's roommate)". Not knowing the situation i tried to call and it went to voicemail several times before Chris answered the phone. Apparently the DOJ came to their house and confiscated all of Paul's guns. They took a total of 15 firearms.
Paul got into a fist fight at a local mcdonalds last october on his way home from duck hunting because some hispanic guys were trying to steal the duck decoys from his truck and he beat the snot out of them. He was charged and convicted of misdemeanor assault because he put one of the guys in the hospital. He is a pretty level headed guy and was put into a situation where he had to neutralize 3 guys fast...but California's retarded laws still convicted him for defending his own property.
I was just dumbfounded that the DOJ can come into his home and take away his property all because he defended his own property in the first place. I'm just shaking my head over this situation and hope crap like that never lands on Georgia's doorsteps.
Does anyone know of any organizations that might be able to help Paul out? Does he just let this go and let them have his guns? He doesn't make enough to be able to afford a good lawyer and i have offered to help out with the money issue but will it help?
Is this even legal?????
