Guns vs. Birds
Item one on Page B6, Nov. 5: Former San Bernardino Sheriff Floyd Tidwell, under color of authority, steals as many as 523 guns and prosecutors agreed to reduce the charges from a felony to a misdemeanor if he cooperated in helping them find the guns. Item two on the same page (In Brief): A bird smuggler could get 18 months in prison for bringing 125 birds into this country.
Don’t ya just love our system? Let’s see ... 523 guns versus 125 birds ... only our fair and just system can come up with this.
