Shotgun executive taken into custody in CO

[Scutter01]

Guys, we are getting punked. Mr. Perazzi is dead. He died last year. It was all over the Orvis-end of the gun culture.

Probably why he was arrested, then. Dead guys shouldn't be taking cabs anywhere.

At the last gun shop I was in, which will remain nameless, Counterman told me that he just saw Jeff Cooper at the NRA Annual Meeting in Houston. (I was very proud of myself, I did not say a single word).

Apparently the gun culture is infected with zombieism.

I see he did die in 2012. I wonder how the story started? I thought it was a little outrageous even for Denver police. The original link is from a site that has usually been reliable but I see it's all over the net right now.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

It's the gun culture. It is a Cambrian Explosion of nonsense every day.

 

[jbombelli]

The real question here, since Mr. Perazzi has passed away, is who will he be voting for in 2016?

 

[Scutter01]

Examiner is not generally known for posting fiction, although they occasionally get some facts wrong (like pretty much any news source). They claim that the story came from NRA director Steve Schreiner, who is presumably a credible source, and that gun show did take place this weekend. I can only assume that the name or identity of the person arrested was horribly mistaken.

EDIT: According to the article's author, quoted from Perazzi's lawyer, the person arrested is the grandson of Daniele Perazzi, so he's a namesake. He's not THE Daniele Perazzi, but he's A Daniele Perazzi.

Is it possible that the story is true, and they simply got the first name wrong? Could it perhaps be that the person they are talking about is not Daniele but his son Mauro who I believe is the current president or at least a higher up in the company.

Possible? Sure. But it's the gun culture, all kinds of nonsense generates without anyone even trying.

I'll with with total nonsense until shown otherwise.

1. Daniele Perazzi is dead.

2. Contrary to movies and CSI police cannot "take someone in for questioning".

3. This is the Orvis-set. Guys are there wearing suits totaling entire gun collections.

If you attend this gun show, you won't smell like an armpit and will have been to a dentist in the last 6 months and, moreover, you have the education and resources to make the police disappear with a phone call. Plus you know not to believe the "come with us for questioning".

You are a big whig with Perazzi. You do not go for a turkey sandwhich without your attorney; you are very familiar with the law in your biggest market. Heck, the attorney likely had the adjoing hotel suite.

4. Contract dispute (the guns are sold in the back) that went south and someone stormed off mad and some weird cover story got all twist around like the "telephone" game you played in grade school?

Wait and see but my money is on punking.

Ahh.

Seems I was wrong.

Holy mother of pearl! I just saw a Fox31 story.

Apparently this is true, or reported as true.

*head spins*

Man, did the coppers just grab the bull by the horns or what? Policy limits check to Mr. Perazzi's named charity now.

How old is this grandson? Why is he wandering about without the rest of the Board of Directors and a platoon of lawyers?

Maybe he's trying to drum up checks for his favorite charity.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

I cannot believe the cops would act that way.

What was he "arrested for"? Not being a WASP in possession of firearms?

That is every negative image of the Western States rolled into one incident.

I have this image of the Denver City Attorney rubbing his temples with both hands, saying "calm blue ocean" over and over.

Yep I should of refreshed before I posted, rather than just posting after checking some other things.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

So, any more word on this?

War on guns seems to say hoax but Fox in Denver is sticking with the story.

This is so jacked up it must be gun store fiction.

The War on Guns: The hoax of the arrest of Perazzi: a fake scoop created by the gun lobby?

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Ok, my first thought was correct. This story is complete hokum.

Typical gun culture, make crap up and then run around the conference room table.

Like 8th graders discussing sex. No one really knows anything about what they are discussing but everyone is very enthused about it.

You should read Codrea's account of the fact-checking he did. If this story really is bunk, someone went to a LOT of trouble to concoct it and cover their tracks.

The War on Guns: Important Update to Perazzi Story

 

[Kirk Freeman]

You should read Codrea's account of the fact-checking he did.

Well, "fact-checking" in the gun culture? Where they all cite each other?

I did check Codrea that is why I linked to the War on Guns. And to be fair, I would trust Codrea before I trust any of the other gun culture.

The problem is that the gun culture never gets it from the horse's mouth. They all run around the table on fire in their wookie suits but no one war games it out (well-scrubbed and educated persons with resources and knowledge get hassled by local cops--ain't no way) even checks with Perazzi (maybe because he speaks the third most Italian)?

Typical reaction without thinking that is a failing of the gun culture.
