Jeanine Pirro could turn DC into 'nothing short of a tinderbox' by ignoring law: expert

Jeanine Pirro, the current U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C., announced last month that her office would no longer prosecute residents found in violation of the city’s ban on open carrying long guns, a decision that one gun violence expert warned could produce deadly results.

“Now, especially with the announcement that National Guard members will carry firearms, our nation’s capital has become nothing short of a tinderbox,” wrote Kris Brown, president of the anti-gun violence organization Brady, writing for the Washington Post in an op-ed published Monday.

“As the prospects for unrest persist, extremists, self-described vigilantes and Jan. 6 radicals – who have been pardoned, coddled and emboldened by the Trump administration – might see this policy shift as a no-questions-asked invitation to march the D.C. streets armed with dangerous weapons without the threat of prosecution.”
