The attacks on the Second Amendment, by government, has extended to persecuting a decorated war hero and charging him with five counts of third
degree criminal possession of a weapon, for having completely empty 30 round AR-15 Magazines in his
vehicle.
On January 6, 2013, a decorated combat veteran, Staff Sergeant Nathan Haddad, was driving through Jefferson County, New York when he was randomly pulled over at a Fourth Amendment violating warrantless vehicle checkpoint search. Haddad, who had five 30 round empty magazines in his vehicle, was arrested by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department and was charged with five separate felonies. If convicted on all counts, Haddad, could spend the majority of the rest of his life in prison.
When Nathan Haddad was arrested the
new ban on his
gun magazines had not yet taken effect. The ignoramuses’ at the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department should be given a civics homework assignment, namely, look up the term, ex post facto. In other words, the government cannot pass a law which makes a past act, prior to a new law taking effect, illegal. But I forget, this is the new America and we are clearly in the midst of adopting totalitarian laws and law enforcement practices which are serving to replace our Constitution (e.g. the NDAA).
Ironically, Haddad was
recently honored by the Philadelphia chapter of Blue Star Mothers and the Union League’s Armed Services Council for helping
disabled veterans get back on their feet and this is how the Jefferson County Sheriff’s office honors his service to his country and later, to his community.
A legal
relief fund has been set up to help Sergeant Haddad fight against the tyrants in New York. I would encourage all to donate what they can.
