Not that I really care, but damn that’s funny. She is also suspected as being the ringleader of a group suspected in a series of DRIVE BY SHOOTINGS!

Forgive me for shouting, but I just find this hilarious. In her defense she denies the having anything to do with the shootings, or the drugs, but admits to having the gun. She claims the gun belonged to her son. Who was killed in an episode of gun violence, she also claims that she found the gun six weeks ago IN HER HOUSE; but didn’t know what to do with it.

I would think that the head of the Springfield chapter of the Million Mom March would know that when you find a gun with the serial numbers filed off, YOU CALL THE COPS!
