Night shooter arrested Guess you should really pay attention to the town codes and laws.. I wonder what they trumped up on him "disorderly conduct" Is that code for he was drunk? |

Either drunk or talked his way into it. Perhaps get both. If the dude was sober and nice and still got arrested, it might make a nice 2A case with the right lawyers. Something about this statement makes me think that won't happen.  "It is not illegal to shoot in there. However, based on the totality of the circumstances, the timing and everything else involved, that's where the charges were derived from," Doty said. Police are not releasing the identity of the man at this time, but he is facing charges. "Right now, he's looking at charges for reckless conduct, disorderly conduct. And there are more to come," Doty said. Reckless Conduct Disorderly Conduct |

Can’t say what the real details are but as far as the laws pertaining to shooting, RSA 159:26 restricts any town ability to create any type of restriction or noise ordinance in regards to firearms. Sean List, who’s arguably one of the states best firearm lawyers and law experts points directly to this (not about this specific situation) but to local ordinances in general.

If he was, then I hope he sues and wins. Not a fan of List at all. His public persona is that of a child. If he would shut his cock holster every once in awhile I might pay attention to him. |

State law. Town ordinance has nothing to do with it. With no details about backstop, whose property it was, etc., its conjecture whether it was a good arrest or not. 644:2 Disorderly Conduct. – A person is guilty of disorderly conduct if: I. He knowingly or purposely creates a condition which is hazardous to himself or another in a public place by any action which serves no legitimate purpose; or II.
