Well, maybe those Samoas are a deadly sin...

A California man was taken into custody over the weekend after he allegedly pulled a gun on a young Girl Scout who was selling cookies.

A California man was taken into custody over the weekend after he allegedly pulled a gun on a young Girl Scout who was selling cookies.

A press release from the Riverside County Sheriff-Coroner's office that the father of the girl, who is a minor, contacted authorities after he saw 59-year-old John Dodrill point the gun at his daughter while she was selling cookies door-to-door on Sunday.

"When the victim knocked on the suspect’s door, he opened the door and pointed a gun at her," the release said.

Dodrill was taken into custody for suspected assault with a deadly weapon. His firearm was confiscated as evidence, the sheriff's office said.

brash? Pulling a gun when someone rings your doorbell is a sign of living in fear.

My guess is that gun nuts think anything they do is ok because no one can do anything to them 2A freedom.
