Fashion Police


A gun rights activist has been arrested and charged for scaring the bejesus out of gun fearing wussies by wearing a fanny pack. (Italics and snarky comments in original)

I think you will be at first amused, and then appalled, by the charges which I now give you verbatim from the Criminal Complaint filed in the Circuit Court of the 17th Judicial Circuit, County of Winnebago, Case Number 05-315.

DISORDERLY CONDUCT: in that Shawn (SIC) Kranish knowingly did an act in such an unreasonable manner as to alarm or disturb Janna L. Shwaiko and provoke a breach of peace to wit Shawn (SIC) Kranish walked into the Presidents (SIC) office and requested from Shwaiko a meeting with the President. Kranish was wearing a blue jacket with the words "I Carry" on the front of the jacket and he was also wearing a black nylon pouch or handgun holster (Note: Can't officer Crumb tell the difference?). Shwaiko believed Kranish to be carrying a gun and it alarmed her in violation of 720 ILCS 5/26-1(a) of the Illinois Compiled Statutes.

Officer Edward Crumb, #167
Complainant

So if you're walking down the streets of Illinois don't make any scary moves or you might find yourself locked up for startling the easily startled.

Good thing he wasn't wearing a Sex Pistols tee-shirt under the scary jacket.

OK, here I go again. It sounds like the guy was deliberately trying to scare people. "I carry", a black pistol pouch or pistol sized pouch and asking to see the president of the company. I'm guessing that his behavior also had something to do with freaking them out.
This stuff is no joke and this clown, once again I say, is doing us gun rights people no favors. In fact, I would guess that if he is not just a dick with a few supporters on line for boorish juvenile behavior (ahem), then he is an anti-gunner trying to make carry laws look like an invitation to really actually terrorize innocent people.
Respectfully submitted,
Your Conscience.
