Don Perata was carjacked this weekend. Fortunately, he was physically unhurt. One interesting note from the press coverage:
Perata said today that he no longer carries a concealed-weapons permit and there was no gun in his state car.Perata said he never had the permit renewed when it expired two years ago because he “just never had the opportunity to re-qualify” at a gun range. Perata obtained the permit out of security concerns stemming from his work regulating firearms.
Good for me, not for thee. I just found out about this old news:
The rumor that Sylvester Stallone was issued a CCW permit struck my interest as I had recently been made aware that he had attended a Los Angeles event sponsored by the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence. The “Brady Bunch”, as
they are commonly referred to by gun-rights advocates, are one of the most well known
organizations that are lobbying to take away our rights as lawful gun owners. I was also learning that Stallone had been quoted in the past saying some very anti-gun statements, even advocating door to door gun confiscations! I found all of this terribly hypocritical.
