Oh, I forgot to mention...

An interesting tidbit in a story about Mitchell Johnson, one of the Jonesboro shooters - it casually mentions that the other shooter, Andrew Golden, had attempted to obtain a concealed carry permit in 2008 using a false name and a bad address. Luckily, the police denied the application.

Senator Matt Rector of Guam, apparently had the same memory problems in 2008 as he forgot to mention his burglary conviction in the 1980's. The oops cost Sen. Rector his freedom and his position.

September, 2009 Crime: Road Rage

Maumelle, Arkansas - Family Festival promoter and concealed carry permit holder, Norman Millard "Butch" Stone Jr. was driving slowly in the outside lane. This annoyed Kenton Byrd who acted incorrectly by tailgating Butch in an effort to get him to move into the slow lane. Butch waved the other driver around but then, as they did attempt to pass him, he pulled his gun and aimed at them. They quickly pulled into the Wal-Mart parking lot to get away from the situation but was followed by Butch. Butch and both of the passengers in his car got out of their vehicle and moved to Kenton's vehicle, where again Butch pulled his weapon out and pointed it at Kenton. Butch then pushed Kenton into his car and left the scene. When police caught up with Butch he attempted to claim that he pointed his gun at a moving vehicle, followed it into a parking lot and then pulled a gun on them again because he thought his life was in danger because he thought maybe the other guy had a gun. (Ed. note - If you thought your life was in danger, wouldn't you move away from someone, not follow them?)

September, 2009 Crime: Reckless endangerment and discharging a firearm

Tonawanda, New York - Restaurant co-owner and concealed carry permit owner, Michael Parker chose to fire his gun in his restaurant for a reason as yet unknown to the public. Whether it was an accident as he claims or otherwise, as the numerous witnesses claim, the bullet went through a refrigerator, through the exterior wall of the kitchen and across the street. Luckily, no one was injured.
