Clark Aposhian, Utah Gun Lobby Chief, Arrested On Domestic Violence Charge
Clark Aposhian, a chief lobbyist for gun rights in Utah, was arrested on Monday after allegedly showing up at his ex-wife's house in a 2.5-ton army truck and threatening her husband.
When Aposhian received a call from his ex-wife's husband asking him not to return, he allegedly responded by saying he'd go wherever he pleased and would run over their cars and "bury" him, the AP reports.
When he returned to the house in a different car, reportedly to offer to clean up any tire marks he may have left, he was booked by police who had been called to the scene, according to The Salt Lake Tribune. Officers confiscated the weapon he had with him and charged him with trespassing, harassment, domestic violence, failure to appear in court and for multiple outstanding traffic violations. He posted bail later on Monday.
Under state law, a domestic violence conviction could force Aposhian to turn over his guns, his concealed-weapons permit and concealed-carry instructor’s license. It could also potentially cause others to scrutinize his leadership roles on a number of Utah gun groups.
Overheard at the NRA: "The only way to stop a bad guy with ricin letter is a good guy with a ricin letter..."

Interesting... and not once did he draw, brandish or use his weapon... for a matter of fact "But police said he wasn't allowed to go anywhere, and they detained him while they investigated further — but not after confiscating a gun Aposhian reportedly told officers he was carrying on his side." So your point is what?
