It is absolutely disgraceful how they treated this wounded veteran.

Injured vet's guns stolen by D.C.
If they don't return this soldier's property soon, it's only going to hurt their fight against the 2nd Amendment.

It seems to me that Lt Kim's only two mistakes were relying on 18 USC § 926A to protect him from the D.C. Police Department, and allowing an unwarranted search of his car. Well, that and trying to find his way through D.C.'s crazy street layout. Apparently the only thing there more difficult to navigate is their legal system.Mr. Kim was transporting his firearms from his parents' house in New Jersey to South Carolina when he stopped at Walter Reed in Washington for a medical appointment in the summer of 2010.
After being pulled over, handcuffed, arrested, thrown in jail overnight, his guns were confiscated by the city.
In the end, the platoon leader felt forced to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge, which was later dismissed, but the District still refuses to return to him $10,000 worth of firearms and parts. The national guardsman will deploy to Kosovo this summer. The city should return his property before he leaves to serve our nation overseas for the third time.
