I don't know Travis, the guy was a "construction contractor" and has been lugging his armory around for months, according to the article. It doesn't smell right.
Why do you put “construction contractor” in quotes? You think builders are lowlifes? If you live in a location where you have to drive a long way to pick somebody at the airport, and the range is out that way, why would you not take your guns to save making unnecessary laps around the countryside?
“As Dominguez entered the airport’s ring road, his truck was pulled over for inspection.”
I’ve driven down this accessway to LAX...
Apparently the “inspection” points are located outside the LAX property...I’m probably wrong since it has been a while since I was there...
Regardless of Dominguez’s intent, they got him on the illegal transportation issue, simply because he did “stop” on the way to the range to pick up his friend, in all places on the way to the airport...
Do I like it, certainly not...But those in California get what they elect...A bunch of crap...
I would have made sure I had a full tank of overpriced gas, go to the potty before I got in the car, and made a separate trip to pick up my friend, before I loaded up the ammo and guns to go to the range...Knowing the law...
But, like I said, y’all in California get what you elected...
I assume all of this “extra” information about the 1000 of .22 caliber amnmunition, and the different accounts of how many guns he had and what type of guns he had locked up in the truck, unloaded, etc etc...Will just prove yet again that when you have ten different reporters reporting, you’ll get ten different stories...And they are all wrong...
All designed to scare the unwashed, and solidify the un-Constitutional “checkpoint” activities around that particular airport...
I’m with Travis...The only thing I miss is the scenery...
