Sooper Seekrit Settlement – Update

It’s no longer a secret, silly.

In an update to the settlement of some pawn shops with NYC, Cam Edwards says:

I’ve gotta do some checking on what the current language is, but I wonder if this “historic settlement” doesn’t violate the law?

Meanwhile, Bitter says:

Now, given that these are just two random pawn shops in Georgia, I can understand why they don’t want to fight NYC. On the other hand, this comes after news about Bob Barr’s lawsuit against the city and revelations that it was the investigators who lied on federal forms and are being investigated by the ATF for those actions. Why didn’t these guys have their lawyers call Barr? Or, if they really didn’t want to be bothered by future anti-gun mayors, why didn’t they just get out of the firearms business? Now every anti-gun mayor is going to try a stunt like this and target those shops.

    I think it’s pretty brilliant, all in all.

    They get their case closed.
    NYC pays someone to “verify” that they’re doing what the ATF verifies for free. Plus, ATF has a whole crate of whoopass that they can open up if the books/inventory’s not up to snuff, so it won’t impact their day to day operations in the slightest if they’re actually doing it the way they should.

    Now, Atlanta can sue NYC vendors and attach experts to their stores, and it’s Okily-doklily.

    Atlanta should put those verifiers on the New York Stock Exchange to watch for market shenanigans. They should pay particular attention to anything Bloomberg owns.

  3. SayUncle » more on Bloomberg settlements Says:

    […] Some pawn shops have settled and there’s a counter suit in the works after Bloomberg’s investigators broke the law. One guy isn’t settling: Dennis Alverson said he has received offers from New York City to settle a lawsuit the city brought against his Old Dominion Gun & Tackle shop in Danville. […]

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