Police: NBC asked for high-capacity clip (The David Gregory plot thickens...)
Washington Post ^ | 12/26/12 | Peter Hermann and Martin Weil

Posted on 12/26/2012 9:21:22 AM PST by jimbo123

NBC News asked D.C. police for a high-capacity ammunition clip to use as a prop on Sunday’s “Meet the Press” show, a request District authorities said Wednesday they denied.

But host David Gregory appears to have obtained one anyway — and then displayed it on national television. Now D.C. police say they’re investigating whether the District’s gun laws were violated in the incident.

It’s not clear where the prop used during the show was obtained, or who obtained it.

Any request to use a magazine would have been turned down as a matter of course, the official saids, because it would have implicated police in an illegal act.

So will David Gregory and NBC plead White Privilege? Accidental Ambien ingestion? Asperger's Syndrome?

After a thorough investigation it was found to be W’s fault.

Because liberals are such lying duplicitous hypocrits, the magazine likely came from Gregory’s privately held AR or AK. These bastards are the enemy within ...

I'm surprised David Gregory even survived the encounter.

After all this style magazine is said to be responsible for thousands of murders.

Perhaps the DC Police should call the network lawyer and tell him if Gregory didn’t do it, then HIS ass goes to ABJ......

Won’t happen. Gregory will be sentenced to community service in the form of anti-gun PSAs.

Would a ban on high cap magazines stopped this? I doubt it. Remember that Maurice Clemmons murdered four police with a .38 revolver.

A Wikipedia report shows Clemmons (released by Mike Huckabee)wanted to attack cops and school children.

Braindead Gregory probably borrowed it from one of the guards at his kids school.

A halfway decent prop guy could cobble together a facsimile of a magazine in an hour or so. News is so often faked...

Forty years ago Viet Cong blacksmiths using tin snips and sheet metal were turning out 30 round magazines for captured M-16s.

Do these idiots really think a person with modern hand equipment cannot turn out a workable one in their garage?

All the time he was waiving that magazine around, he was also deriding the VP of the NRA for advocating armed guards at schools. Of course, he never mentioned that his kids go to a school where they have eleven (11) armed guards and that doesn’t count the armed secret service agents at the school because Obamas kids go there also. What a flaming hipocryte.

chain of custody issue. He can turn over anything, even a dummy fake, and he creates reasonable doubt.

Maybe he borrowed it from one of the many armed guards at NBC, his child’s private school (Sidwell Friends), his bodyguard, the Capitol Police or the Brady organization.
