I’ll have guns with my anti-immigrant politics

Posted July 23, 2008 by Patrick Young, Esq.

We sometimes forget who the leaders of Long Island’s anti-immigrant groups are.
Newsday reminded us yesterday with this item about one of the leaders of our region’s own Minuteman militia.
Submitted for your consideration: One Gabriel Razzano.
Razzano, an anti-immigrant activist with the Minuteman militia, is your neighbor if you live in Freeport. He is suing to get his guns, confiscated by the Nassau PD, back.
Now his guns were purchased legally, that isn’t the problem.
It is the number of guns.
Nine rifles and fifteen handguns were confiscated from him. Grand total-24 guns.
Getting ready for the Race War are we, Mr. Razzano?
Razzano came to the attention of the cops when he began harassing Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy. He says he votes in her district. OK.
Only problem is, according to Newsday, records indicate that while he votes in her district (presumably against her), he lives in Peter King’s kingdom.
Now if an immigrant voted in an election when he wasn’t eligible, Razzano would want him deported. Wonder what the penalty should be for a Minuteman doing the same thing?
