A felon posing as a “peace officer” Wednesday evening at American Lake — complete with a badge, handcuffs and gun — fired gunshots at two military helicopters from Joint Base Lewis-McChord, according to charging documents.

No injuries or damage to the aircraft have been reported, JBLM spokesperson Gary Dangerfield told The News Tribune. Court records say Chinook helicopters carrying 31 service members were conducting training exercises.
 
Andre Wright Jr., 45, was charged Thursday in Pierce County Superior Court with first-degree assault, second-degree unlawful possession of a firearm and possession of a stolen firearm.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

See!  If gun laws were stronger, Wright wouldn't have had that STOLEN firearm. :tongue2:

Another felon that gun laws didn't prevent from having a gun.
