A Colchester man was arrested in Royalton for walking in traffic and shooting a firearm, according to a report by Vermont State Police.
On July 20, at 5:18 p.m., troopers responded to a report of a man recklessly endangering motorists while walking along Route 14. The man, later identified as 44-year-old Steven Foster of Colchester, was located on Shurlock Road in possession of the firearm.
After it was determined that Foster is legally prohibited from owning a firearm, Foster was promptly arrested and now faces charges of reckless endangerment, disorderly conduct, and possession of a firearm as a prohibited person. He was jailed on $5000 bail. – republished from Newport Dispatch

Many people are familiar with other people being cast as enablers of bad behavior seen in certain individuals who are acting badly or engaging in dangerous behaviors….in this case here in Vermont, it is the state that has become the enabler.
What we need in this state are more gun laws that don’t stop prohibited persons from misusing guns.
William S. Burroughs: After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn’t do it.
No more guns for you…
