They don't look at intent, he wasn't arrested or smuggling or anything, he was arrested for possession. There is really no defense against this charge. It's the law and it's very seriously enforced in ny, that's why he's facing 4'years

Yup. They got posters all over the trains and subways and even billboards, saying clear as day that if you get caught with a gun on you -- 3.5 years bid minimum.

you have the typical Internet message board troll, along with those sad contrarian/devils advocate types who enjoy arguments from behind the safety of their computer monitor. there is absolutely no reason why Guerrero deserves to do time for this unless he is found to be part of some conspiracy to commit murder

That's not how the law works. Owning an illegal weapon is a huge crime, it's the possession of the weapon that got him arrested

LOS ANGELES - Early this morning Six-Time and Four Division World Champion Robert Guerrero was checking in his luggage at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City, bound for Las Vegas, and, as he was doing so, made sure to advise the authorities that they needed to be aware that he had a firearm, which was unloaded and in a locked safe box with his luggage to be checked. Guerrero was carrying no ammunition and was within his legal right to possess such firearm in the state in which he resides. He was then arrested.

But the DA said he was carrying ammo?

Im pretty sure the guns they're talking about have to be ILLEGAL. In Guerrero's case the gun was NOT illegal. It' registered under his name. Now that he had no NY license that's a different story.

my point goes beyond what's legal or illegal, it's a matter of ethics. did he unknowingly break a law, yes. does he deserve to go to jail? based on the circumstances of this particular situation, and this is my opinion, no he doesn't deserve to go to prison. people make me sick who look at a situation in black and white, and make judgements that can change somebodies life who did no harm to anybody. this is why I can't stand our penal/legal system and those who choose to follow it blindly.
