DC: Unregistered Ammo Arrest
Draconian gun laws claim another victim.
“Mark Witaschek, a successful financial adviser with no criminal record, is facing two years in prison for possession of unregistered ammunition after D.C. police raided his house looking for guns,” reports The Washington Times. “Mr. Witaschek has never had a firearm in the city, but he is being prosecuted to the full extent of the law. The trial starts on Nov. 4.” The ammo in question was one .270 casing, one live shotgun shell, and a box of Knight bullets for reloading. Clearly, our Founders didn’t intend for the District, the seat of the federal government, to be a Constitution-free zone.
