From Behind Bars, Randy “Duke” Cunningham Begs For The Right To Own A Gun



Randall “Duke” Cunningham, the disgraced former congressman currently serving an eight year sentence for his involvement in one of the biggest bribery scandals in congressional history, would like his second amendment rights restored when he leaves prison so he can hunt, fish and protect himself from rabid cougars, he wrote in a letter to a federal judge this month.

Unfortunately for 71-year-old Cunningham, that wouldn’t happen because legislation passed during his time in Congress bans ATF from using federal funds to investigate whether felons should get their gun rights restored.

In a forlorn, rambling note to the judge who sentenced him, Cunningham said he is scheduled for release to a halfway house in December of this year. He begged to have his second amendment rights restored saying, “I will live in a very remote part of Arkansas, and not much threat (sic) from people but they do have a lot of black bears, cougars, and history of rabies.”

1. Wow. I scrolled down the link and read the actual letter.

It's pathetic. The guy is functionally illiterate. I almost felt sorry for him.

Then I remembered. He's Duke Freaking Cunningham.

[SHRED]

2. No telling how many troops...

...this assclown put in danger with his special deals he worked out with defense contractor/suppliers.

3. With a smile on my face, I'd say, "You are a convicted felon and officially a second class citizen."

8. ..

I would be more inclined to give the guns to the bears and rabid cougars than that crooked pile of.......

[jwirr]

4. NO what makes you any more worthy to own a gun than any other criminal?

[DLine]

5. He is a great example of how greed can ruin your life.

This guy had a very distinguished Navy career as a fighter pilot. He shot down 5 north Vietnamese planes and was also an instructor at "Top Gun". Now he sits in a prison cell because the very comfortable lifestyle he had legally just wasn't enough.

6. WTF? Rabid COUGARS??

Might want to check out a slightly less remote neighborhood, Duke.

[SHRED]

7. Oh...the real cougars...got it...LOL

11. Meanwhile 47of74 puts his luggage away...

[RFKHumphreyObama]

12. Well he does call himself "Randy"

[jmowreader]

9. If he'd promise to turn it on himself the day he got it, maybe...

Considering how badly he fucked the military with his dealings, though, maybe his being eaten by a rabid black bear is the best result for us all.

10. Those Bars must work out well for him

Hope he has a long stay.

[HangOnKids]

13. For Fuck Sake

This is what happens when you don't have aides writing letters for you. Randy is a fucking illiterate asshole. People really voted for this dumb ass? Pathetic.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

14. Perhaps

his future halfway house is for half wits?

[PufPuf23]

15. That is such bull shit.

I have bears and cougars come in my yard and the animals prone to carrying rabies are skunks.

I worked, lived, and recreated most of my life in forests more wild than anything in Arkansas and never carried a gun for protection except working a a Fed contractor in brown bear areas of SE Alaska where crews were required by safety plan in contract to have arms.

16. He was a great F-4 pilot during the Viet Nam War. His political views are atrocious, though. nt

17. Good luck, bears and cougars of Arkansas.

No sympathy, Mr. Cunningham. I know about the people who bribed you, and the damage that whole mess did.
