The media are having a field day about this they are all over it like flies on a dead horse.

Eh. Not good but I do not see how it in any way validates the anti-carry position. The moron got stopped for driving at 60 mph in a 40 mph zone and not for anything that happened with his gun, which was not even on his person but in the car he was driving. Crucify him for endangering lives with a car but not with a firearm.

I saw it too. I would like to see how this plays out in court. (Did he take a breath test or blood test at the jail, and if so what was his BAC for example ?) I am aware that MNPD takes the position that any amount of alcohol automatically disqualifies a person from firearms position. (With the carry law open to interpretation[it does not mention any specific bac] , an anti-carry zealot could try to nab someone for merely taking a sip of wine as part of a religious service.)

He has 3 charges 1) DUI, 2) Implied consent, 3) possession of a handgun while under the influence.

News media has a hard time reading affidavits of arresting officers which were all available on line within hours of the arrest.

I see the same exact thread posted in multiple places. Since this is more of a media issue, I would suggest closing the matching thread over in State Legislation.
