'The court is quite concerned with what we see'

A New York City man accused of fatally shooting a would-be robber was hit with an additional 24 gun charges and had his bail doubled. However, the new charges are not directly linked to the deadly shooting.

As TheBlaze previously reported, Charles Foehner was confronted by a man in the Kew Gardens neighborhood of Queens around 2 a.m. on Wednesday. Surveillance video shows the man, 32-year-old Cody Gonzalez, staggering toward Foehner. Gonzalez allegedly demanded money and cigarettes.

Gonzalez allegedly had a pen in his hand, which Foehner mistook as a knife. After several warnings, Foehner purportedly shot and killed Gonzalez with a handgun after Gonzalez lunged at him.

Gonzalez reportedly had at least 15 arrests dating back to 2004 and a record of mental illness.

Apparently the charges relate to his not having permits for all the firearms he owned and he had no prior record. He even called the police after the shooting, and he freely admits to not having obtained permits for most or all of the handguns due to concerns about crime skyrocketing in NYC.

It's a classic 2nd Amendment case.

mental

I can recall my twin sister telling me I was mental. I still have no idea what she meant.

I cannot ask her about it since she has been dead for 10 years. ;)
