SAFE Act advocate arrested for…violating SAFE Act
I saw this story the other day, but the initial reports were a little blurry about which side of the gun debate he was on. But, Dwayne Ferguson, was an advocate of that SAFE Act in New York State, you know, that gun control measure that New York’s legacy governor passed in the dead of night in his rush to be the first to pass gun control legislation after Sandy Hook. Anyway, Ferguson was arrested the other day for carrying a firearm in his local school, made a felony by the SAFE Act, according to the Buffalo News;
Ferguson, 52, told WGRZ-TV that he frequently carries the gun, for which he has a permit, and did not realize he had it on him when he went to the school as part of the mentoring program.
Those who have worked with him also said they believe it was an honest mistake.
“I’m sure Dwayne went into the school not thinking he had the gun on him,” said Rev. James E. Giles, a friend of Ferguson and president of Back to Basics Outreach Ministries. “We know this for a fact, that he called out to a Buffalo police lieutenant asking why the school was in lockdown, and that they were looking for a man with a gun.
Yeah, they need to take his license from him – anyone who doesn’t know that they’re carrying a gun needs to be slapped. And all of his fellow cretins/gun grabbing fascists need to get a grip. There’s nothing in the SAFE Act that says “…unless you forget…” I’m pretty sure that the Erie County prosecutor will cut him a break and only because he’s a good gun-grabber. But, he broke the law and he needs to be more aware of the fact that he’s carrying a gun. Although, I’m convinced that he knew he had a gun, but because he’s a goody two shoes, he thought he deserved to break the law because he loves the smell of his own farts, and so should everyone else.
Screw this guy, I hope they plant him in a prison exercise yard, not because he had a scary gun in school, but because he’s a fricken hypocrite.

guns for me, not for thee. he didn’t “forget”. he knew he had it on him but felt he was above the law. I hope they make an example of him under the SAFE act.
@1-Considering just what a nimrod you’d have to be to not notice the multi pound, eight-inch long object strapped to your waist as you walk into a school, I’m in agreement. Fuck this guy.
I love how his gun grabbing friends rushing to defend him and say that he didn’t mean to do so and that he’s a good guy, blah, blah, blah. Yet, if it were you or I; those same people would be screaming for our heads. He should get the same punishment that anyone else would get, because it doesn’t matter who you are; if you break the law, you break the law.
Sucks to have your own law used against you, eh?
Petard. His. Hoisted.
Ain’t irony grand.
Erie County does EVERYTHING bass ackwards so yeah, he’ll get a pass from his fellow cretins.
In a sane world this would highlight how gun control laws only affect normal law abiding citizens and do nothing to reduce crime, just limit the freedoms of those citizens.
Yup–another prime example of the elitists feeling they don’t have to live by the rules they want to foist upon everyone else.
You didn’t know you had a gun on you? That alone should be enough to double the sentence.
You feel that, Dwayne? That’s what it feels like when Bubba ass-plows ya.
Of course he will get a pass, just as all the other useful idiots get passes when they violate laws that they only want to be applied to the rest of us.
Here’s hoping that the prosecutors see this as a challenge. Yeah, prove me wrong. Please.
First, a suicide-bombing instructor blows up himself and 23 students.
Then next, a gun-grabbing idiot gets busted for wearing a gun to a school.
And then a climate scientist says that climate scientists are full of crap.
Are you getting this stuff from the Duffel Blog?
I love this blog!
@9, now all we need is for Hillary to announce she won’t be running in 2016 and hell will have truly frozen over.
More SAFE Act info if anyone goes onto FB:

I see that there are counties (Upstate of course) passing resolutions denying NY State to use their logos, seals, names in SAFE Act communications.
He should use the Barry Switzer defense.
Oh, the irony. A leftist that pushes for a restrictive gun law is now caught breaking that law. And his allies are defending him! I love the, “Dwayne probably was in a position to help the police not knowing that he was the one they were looking for,” said George Johnson, president of Buffalo United Front” Wow!!! Isn’t that what gun rights advocates have been saying for decades? And people like this idiot have been the ones denigrating us for it. Now that the shoe’s on the other foot, let’s see how the act. He forgot he was carrying a gun…bullshit. I’ve been carrying for more than twenty years, and not once have I ever forgotten I had a gun strapped to my belt.
It’ll be interesting to see how he pleads. If he truly believes in the law who helped get passed, he will plead guilty and accept the consequences. I’ll bet he will plead innocent and do his best to get out of the charges, with the help of his friends and associates. Hypocrites all. They disgust me.
Switzer’s defense in his similar case wasn’t so effective, Green Thumb. He pleaded guilty and was fined $3500.
While that would be nice to see, I kinda doubt that’s in play here if a SAFE Act violation of this type is a felony.
“because he’s a fricken hypocrite”. Nailed that on the head. Had he been a conservative would they have said it was an “honest mistake”? I doubt it.
All this demonstrates, again, is that their efforts have nothing to do with guns and everything to do with control. It’s not that guns are evil or the gun control freaks would not EVER get near one. They just don’t want anyone who opposes their lunacy to have guns. It’s much easier for them to control us if they have all the guns.
They pretend that their agenda is so wonderful, yet they continue to lie about it. Why? Is it just that they are not honorable people or that were they honest about who they are and what they want no one (in their right mind) would support them?
Leftists are not hypocrites by definition. Anything they do is acceptable behavior (according to Bill Maher). Of course, like numerous other words, they are unaware of what hypocrisy means.
@16- My number one argument to any ‘liberals’ is just what you said, if there agenda is so wonderful, why continually lie about it? Even the word ‘liberal’ annoys me since it indicates tolerance.
Liberalism is a Mental Disorder, libs prove it day after day.
I always know if I have a pistol on me or not, and how much ammo. Even a subcompact weighs enough to make it kinda impossible not to notice, no matter where you holster it. You feel it slapping or rubbing when you walk. It jabs into your side when you sit down or bend over. Basically, if you forget you’re wearing a sidearm, you’re simply too Goddamn stupid to be armed.
It’s all about Teh Feeeeeelings. (ptoooy!)
