I don't know if VCDL even knows about this yet, but I think it's funny:

Police in Springfield, IL executed a search warrant last week on the home of

Annette� "Flirty" Stevens, anti-gun activist and president of the Springfield

chapter of the Million Mom March. The search warrant was issued in

connection

with a spate of drive-by-shootings in the area. Ms. Stevens was placed under

arrest after the police allegedly found illegal drugs and a handgun with the

serial numbers removed. She may also face being charged with not having a

valid Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) card, required by Illinois law to

keep legal firearms. In a statement to the press, Stevens said the gun

belonged to her son who died in a shooting in mid-2003, that when she

discovered it about a half year following his death, she didn't know what to

do with it, and put it in a drawer.

Richard Pearson, Executive Director of the Illinois State Rifle Association,

commented:� "She could face felony charges. I find it incredible that someone

representing an organization that pushes legislation that only punishes law-

abiding gun owners would possess such an illegal weapon."

"Surely she must be familiar with US gun laws and those in Illinois,

considering the position she holds. Does she think the law does not apply to

her due to anti-gun affiliation? It's the height of hypocrisy!"

"It's a classic case of liberal elitists who say 'Do as I say' but cannot

walk their own talk." Pearson concluded.

I can hear the presses rolling as Webster has ordered new dictionaries and will be using a photo of "Flirty" for their new definition of HYPOCRITE.

No doubt!

The account mentioned that the warrant was executed in connection with an investigation concerning a spate of drive-by shootings. It would be interesting to see just how this develops.
