How Sean Penn Got Gun Permit

That’s the title of this news article. And the answer is: He’s rich and famous!

Despite his history of assaulting photographers, drug use, and reckless driving (which I’m certain may even prevent him from purchasing a firearm under current law, assuming he was charged), he gets a permit to carry a weapon.

Sheriff Charlie Plummer . . . says simply being “a law-abiding citizen” doesn’t cut it in his county. Apparently, even if you don’t abide by the law and are a member of the plutocracy, you can get one. Other permits were issued to Eight judges, several attorneys, businessmen in high-crime areas and a diamond dealer also made the grade. Yup, more affluent people.

I bet this guy wishes he was rich and famous.

Timothy Wheeler endorses shall-issue CCW laws in California: Thirty-eight states now issue permits to law-abiding citizens to carry personal firearms for self-protection. But California’s law leaves permit-granting authority to local chief law enforcement officers, making for a complex patchwork of rules that are often unfairly applied. Some sheriffs grant permits to any good citizens who apply. But in Los Angeles or San Francisco, you can forget it unless you are a celebrity or other well-connected worthy. […]

  3. SayUncle » Like you and me, only better Says:

    […] In California, where it’s pretty hard to get a concealed weapons permit unless you’re Sean Penn, some city politicos say they need permits: Riverside’s city manager and two City Council members said they need the discretion to carry concealed weapons because their political offices or other jobs put them in jeopardy. […]

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
