This is the first *I* have heard of this. I can't even find anything about it on the forum.

Apparently the guy that started GunPal was, eh, see the quote below. There are a couple of other links to catch anyone up to speed.

I was arrested and my house raided for allegedly pulling someone over with a red light and badge somewhere in or near Santa Rosa. None of what was found at the scene of the alleged crime was found in my possession - yet prosecution commenced.

Trouble is I was 100 miles away in Sacramento that entire day with multiple witnesses, Cellphone GPS records, phone calls, and text messages, and signed credit charge receipts to prove it.

By the sounds of it, Ben is going to be bringing a lawsuit of his own to those that tried to smear his good name.

Alright boys and girls, the word of the day is S L A N D E R, slander, also known as defamation of character. Eat'em alive Mr. Cannon.

Case closed.

They call me Mr. Tibbs!

Ben Cannon: case dismissed.
And after that, the court clerk turns to Ben & lawyers and said, "I guess I'll be seeing you in civil court."
Ben: "No, you won't. We'll be in US District Court."

It's in that last link I posted.

GunPal has surged in the last few months, and I bet the uddered goons at paypal (almost all flaming leftist women) are wishing to squelch the competition.
