Gun free zones
So, a reporter gets arrested for being strapped at a school:
A television reporter investigating a story on school violence was arrested after carrying a loaded gun onto school property, authorities said.
Jeffrey Weinsier of WPLG-TV, an ABC network, was taken into custody Tuesday at Miami Central High School after ignoring several warnings not to walk on school property, Miami-Dade schools police said.
“Kindly go across the street now,” an officer is shown telling Weinsier during the videotaped encounter.
“I’m not,” Weinsier replied. The officer then handcuffed him.
Weinsier, 40, was charged with possession of a firearm on school grounds, trespassing on school property with a weapon and resisting officers without violence.
The photographer working with Weinsier, Frank Debesa, said afterward: “Jeff did have a gun on him.”

Think he’s doing it so he can get to court?

will be interesting to see if he was actually on school property or not… from the sounds of the story, he is claiming that he never actually stepped foot on school property… not the smartest way to test the law, but it will be interesting to see how this comes out
