Big Win for Gun Owners! 2/10/09
I just got the word - Danladi Moore, who was arrested for trespass by a Norfolk police officer last August while Danladi was lawfully open carrying at Norfolk's Waterside Mall, has just won his case in court!
The judge told the Norfolk City Attorney that because of the City's financial interest in the mall, the mall is considered PUBLIC property and Danladi was therefore NOT trespassing. All charges are to be dropped.
Well, well - another most deserved lesson to City Attorney Bernard Pishko on not harassing law-abiding gun owners.
Pishko was hell-bent on prosecuting Danladi Moore to teach him a lesson because Danladi had challenged Norfolk's authority in a previous harassment case and won a $10,000 settlement.
Hopefully Dan can now sue the pants off Norfolk AGAIN!
I wonder how much this latest blunder is going to cost Norfolk? Perhaps another zero on the end of the previous settlement?
Go get 'em, Danladi! 
We are attempting to get the transcript of the ruling as it could have much bigger implications for other such government-owned venues across the state.
I was on my way to the Airfield Shooting Club pin match this morning (which I blogged about here on Captain of a Crew of One) and I was openly carrying my cocked and locked Rock Island 1911 in a Blackhawk "Serpa" holster. On the way, I needed to Comment (1)
