More on Schaeffer Cox

Ktuu.com from Fairbanks Alaska reports on the latest from gun rights activist Schaeffer Cox, whom we've discussed before.

FAIRBANKS, Alaska -- An Alaska gun rights activist blames his recent legal troubles on a bothersome mother-in-law and local police.

Second Amendment Task Force leader Schaeffer Cox has been arrested twice in recent months -- first in a dispute with his wife, and then for allegedly failing to notify a Fairbanks police officer he was carrying a concealed weapon.

The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reports that Cox spoke Friday night to about 40 members of the gun rights group. He acknowledged pushing his wife, but said he never punched or choked her as Alaska State Troopers initially claimed.

He blamed the troubles on his mother-in-law, who reported the confrontation to authorities, and he said local law enforcement is engaged in "character assassination" in an attempt to dissuade people from joining the Second Amendment Task Force.

Cox called the state troopers "wicked, corrupt and despicable."


Well, I certainly don't doubt the state troopers are "wicked, corrupt and despicable," but I also have no doubt that Mr. Cox is dangerous and should be disarmed.

What do you think? Is he just another persecuted gun owner? Is it simply a case of his mother-in-law picking on him?
