发帖数: 29846 | 1 VP Finally Worth Someting: Man Beats Gun Charge With Joe Biden Defense
For the first time our clownish vice president, Joey Biden, was finally
useful to someone in this nation when a Washington State man used the “Joe
Biden” defense to get himself out of a gun charge.
Clark County, Washington prosecutors are now dropping a gun charge against a
Vancouver man who fired his shotgun in the air to scare off three punks who
were trying to break into his car outside his home.
The man, Jeffrey C. Barton, 53, invoked our idiot vice president when
charged with a violation of the city’s “no-shooting zone” in July of 2013.
Barton maintained that he was following the advice of our national leader on
what to do during a crime. If you’ll remember, in February of 2013, Biden
was jawing about how Americans don’t need machine guns (something that is
already basically illegal, anyway). Instead, Biden said, they should just
fire their shotguns in the air to scare off criminals.
“I did what Joe Biden told me to do. I went outside and fired my shotgun in
the air,” Barton insisted.
Well, now prosecutors in Clark County have seen that there is no way to
counter that argument and have dropped the gun charges against Barton.
But, to show how capricious our government has become, Clark County
Prosecutor Tony Golik is still desperately throwing false charges at Barton
in an attempt to find something, anything that will stick. Now, instead of a
gun charge, Barton is suddenly being charged with “obstructing a law
enforcement officer,” a charge that was not invoked until now.
Barton and his law team pointed out that this is just a desperate attempt to
justify the illicit arrest. “Tony Golik is desperately grasping at straws
to keep his ass out of a civil suit, which he’s going to get anyway,”
Barton said. |
