"Not Guilty by Reason of Celebrity"

I have been enjoying this series of excellent reportage on the issue of David Gregory and his illegal possession of an empty AR-15 magazine on TV.  It is amusing and relevant in a number of ways.  The comments are enlightening and entertaining as well.

Here, here, and then here.  I think the observation that if David Gregory were not a celebrity journalist he would already have been arrested is spot on.  I was not a fan of his before this dust-up, but I am even less so now.

As a bonus, here is a great follow-up article by Glenn Reynolds on the Newtown, CT tragedy from USA today.
