No we are not lucky for him.but i would agree with any judge that told him ignorance of the law is not acceptable.its not a mistake rock,its up to him to know the law,thats all there is too it and by you continueing to vouch for him saying its ok it was a mistake is doing nothing but allowing him to feel like its ok.Its not ok!like for pete sakes just learn the law and if you cant do that then what makes him responsable to carry a firearm?
