While the tabloids were having a field day recently with the signals a juror in the Tyco trial was allegedly flashing, elsewhere in Manhattan lawyers for the firearms industry were asking the Second Circuit Court of Appeals to recuse a judge they say is sending his own "OK" signal to plaintiffs in a highly contentious gun case.

The original case was NAACP v. Acusport, in which the NAACP sued a large group of gun manufacturers, importers and distributors on the grounds that the industry represented a public nuisance because it allowed its firearms to fall into the hands of criminals. As the National Law Journal stated baldly, lawyers targeting the gun industry steer their cases to Judge Weinstein because they know they "might not succeed in any other courtroom in America."

In order to circumvent possible financial losses due to NAACP's current Lawsuit against Gun Manufacturers, Dealers, and Distributors, we are FORCED to halt ALL firearm, and accessory sales to ALL persons of Color. If this position seems unfair might I suggest you contact the NAACP and discuss the ramifications that THEIR actions are having on YOUR enjoyment and the exercising of YOUR Second Amendment Rights.

Well you can always dream. Just say a prayer the circuit court recuses Weinstein. Since he's been overturned on appeal in all of his cases regarding the 2nd Amendment that have been reviewed by the 2nd Circuit Court, IIRC, and that the 5th Circuit and the Justice Dept. believes in an individual right, this clown is wasting his time and our taxes.

"...The original case was NAACP v. Acusport, in which the NAACP sued a large group of gun manufacturers, importers and distributors on the grounds that the industry represented a public nuisance because it allowed its firearms to fall into the hands of criminals..."

The strangest thing of all in this is that Black People, living in the highest crime areas, will be denied access to firearms to protect themselves from violent armed criminals.

The irony is humongous...............FRegards

Irony is several mental steps beyond the grasp of the gun grabbers.
