And a celebration of liberal stupidity. Link from Toejam.
Arizona – -(Ammoland.com)- Washington State Fair is one of the few locations in the State that bans the legal carry of firearms. That policy is directly stated in the rules for the fair. From thefair.com:
The following items will not be allowed at the Washington State Fair,
Weapons of any kind, including knives and all firearms
The effect of creating a weapons free zone was not lost on a group of criminals. They used the fact that fair workers were known to be disarmed to their advantage. Three different armed robberies of State Fair workers were committed in less than 20 minutes, on the 15th of September, Sunday night, shortly after the Fair closed. From komonews.com:
But Strom had just finished a 10-hour shift selling items at the fair and had been paid $100 in cash.
“But then he pulled out a gun and he asked me for it all, and so I gave him $100 and just walked away before he asked me for my phone or anything,” Strom said.
Strom said the robber was only 5’8″ tall. Strom stand 6’6″ tall. Strom said the man’s gun made up for the size difference.
“I guess you feel pretty big when you have a gun,” he said.
Just 8 minutes later and a mile away on the complete other side of the fair grounds, two more pairs of State Fair workers were robbed at gunpoint. Police believe they were targeted by the same group of robbers.
How many times do we have to tell these twits that when you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns or that crooks don’t obey gun bans? A gun free zone is a target rich environment. Their pea brains are totally unable to comprehend these realities. Liberalism really is a mental disease.
Police presence at and around the fair has been increased in response to the armed robberies committed by four young black men in a white Buick or Oldsmobile.
Now I see the problem. The perps were black and were prolly unable to read the signs saying that guns weren’t allowed. Anyway, these white people who got robbed deserved it because of white privilege and Black Lives Matter and Slavery®. Also, they were stupid liberal twits.
