If this judge ever opens his mouth again, I hope it's only to change feet ....

Magistrate Mr Michael Frederick issued a warning to gun owners last week when he fined a local man for four firearm offences.
"Guns are an instrument of death. I defy anybody to give me one reason to have firearms in their homes," said the Magistrate.
He made the comment during fining XXXXXXX $250 for possessing a gun without
a licence and for keeping it unsecured.
Four firearms were located at XXXXXX's home, all of which were unregistered because he could not afford to renew the licence. One of which was a family heirloom. [sic -- great journalism]
The firearms will remain at the police station for six months until such
time as the defendant receives the appropriate licencing.[/quote]
Emphasis mine.
Where do they find these people?
