Magic Gun found in Lynn

[SteelShooter]

During a drug raid yesterday, police found a magic gun under a couch cushion...

“The baby is literally sitting on top of a loaded gun that could go off at any minute from under the mattress,” Lt. Christopher Kelly said.

They didn't say what type of gun it was other than is was a .357 magnum revolver, I'm thinking it was a Harry Potter brand.

Even my wife and daughter laughed when they read it and had to show it to me.

No Lt. Dumbass, it could not "go off at any minute". It's not a time bomb.

-- That said I never kept my .357 under my kids.

OT: I wanted to comment on the story ^, but every crappy birdcage liner in the world now wants you to have an account and "be part of their community". Pass.

Most hazardous thing in that room was probably the baby's diaper...

Technically, he is right. If it were in the hands of a cop either in the bathroom or if there was a dog around, it could go off any minute.

And this guy is a Lieutenant?

Maybe the gun in his holster will accidentally go off.

No, he trained his.

Did they finally find the gun that killed Kennedy? I bet it fires magic bullets...

 

[dwarven1]

Why do they mention that it was "fully loaded"? Are there many people who keep their guns "partially loaded"?

Under the mattress on which the infant lay, officers found a fully loaded .357 magnum revolver.

Or is that their less-than-subtle way of making the gun sound more dangerous?

clearly you are unsafe with your firearms. the first two rounds in all of my mags are... yes, you guessed it--snap caps.

 

[Almostelmo]

And the third and fourth are safety bullets, right?

When babies are outlawed...

Only criminals will have babies.

 

[wacky_doug]

Oh the drama from the police. If they want to be dramatic without sounding completely retarded, why not, "An illegally obtained loaded firearm was kept within reach of small children in the house."

Was that so hard Lieutenant?

 

[atilla]

And the third and fourth are safety bullets, right?

after those are cleared it's a blank just in case i do have to pull the trigger, i wouldn't want to end up in a MA court!

 

[BOBKATT]

"An illegally obtained loaded firearm was kept within reach of small children in the house."

Better, but here is the truth:

"A firearm, attained in a manner that is subject to the illegal and unconstitutional laws of the state of Massachusetts, was found..."

On the plus side, I did wind up buying that Motoactv monitor they advertised on the page

How can this happen in a wonderful city like Lynn? Jack.

OK, NOW I understand why Luv2BFree could out-shoot you with her LC9 at a pin shoot. With one magazine. And single-loading one more round to get the last pin and forgetting about the mag safety.

 

[highlander]

This is one of the reasons I don't read/buy the Lynn Item. Living in Lynn is depressing enough,reading anout what goes on in and around town is even more depressing.

 

[edhead35]

I am so proud to have grown up in Lynn.

We have magical guns.

you try to run a match and keep your head in the game, too. [sad2]

...and then shoot with a ranch hand.

I think that the cops acted with an appropriate level of concern - a .357 is too much gun for a baby (OK, with light .38s, maybe.....). IMNSHO: Babies should be limited to .22s, until they can go potty by themselves.

It is safer if it is not fully loaded because when it accidentally starts firing, there will be less bullets fired than if fully loaded. Why don't you get this?

Been there, done that, learned my lesson after shooting yours.

That is a Police Lt. that is going to "Whore Himself" into a chiefs job somewhere.

*sigh* I wish I could think he was wrong with this.

Uh... Well, damn. How did you learn to think like a liberal?

 

[SteelShooter]

I like this one too

Following the prosecutor’s request for $20,000 cash bail for Rambert, his attorney, Chris Mangos, of Topsfield, acknowledged that Rambert has 16 default warrants under four aliases, but said he “appears more often than not” when summoned to court.

oh well, if he appears more often than not, we should just let him go

Dont be silly. they are Nerf of course.

And the third and fourth are safety bullets, right?

“The baby is literally sitting on top of a loaded gun that could go off at any minute from under the mattress,” Lt. Christopher Kelly said

so does Lt. Kelly carry around a baby on his holster to make his gun go off when he needs to shoot a dog?

 

[mass]

Will an arsenal of guns or a cache of ammo fit under a mattress?

Depending on the reporter, they could fit under a throw pillow.

 

[GaryO]

I was partially loaded once......... then I got into the tequila and went straight to fully loaded.

I think he meant to say that the baby could have gone off at any time.
