It's too bad he's only a basketball player and not a liberal media commentator in his/her studio -- in which case he probably would have gotten off. (See "Meet the Press" incident).

Now there's more to the story.  Apparently his wife turned the gun into the police.  They're going through a divorce.  More to follow.

You never know who you're married to, until you divorce them.

Yeah, that happens.

This attorney's house was raided by a 30-man SWAT team.  They shut down the streets for blocks around his house.  They used a battering ram to break down the bathroom door and pull his 16 year old son out of the shower, naked.  The police spent two hours going over every inch of his house, causing an estimated $10,000 damage.

They left with an old, inoperable 12-gauge shotgun shell which had misfired during a hunting trip years earlier, one handgun holster (legal), one empty piece of .270 brass, and one box of Knight bullets used in antique-replica, single-shot, muzzle-loading rifles (which are also legal). They had previously taken a Civil War-era Colt antique revolver that the guy kept on his office desk, even though antique firearms are legal and do not have to be registered.

The attorney is a hunter and keeps his firearms at his sister's house in Virginia. Two weeks after the raid, D.C. police investigators went to his sister’s house in Virginia — unaccompanied by Virginia police and without a warrant — and asked to “view” the firearms. She told them to pound sand.

Now he is in the middle of his trial.  The prosecution just rested.

His ex-wife dropped a dime on him because she's angry at him.

I will have to remember that quote, I like it.  It's depressing but it one that opens your eyes.  :o
