Veteran and Single Father in need

Donation protected

We’re reaching out to our Veterans, 2nd amendment supporters, and American Patriots alike.
Our friend, father, fellow Veteran was a victim of misinterpretation.
On Dec 30, John who is an avid collector and expert of vintage and modern rifles and military gear was pulled over after stopping by convenience store. The reason for the stop according to the police was they received a call of “man with a gun”. But no weapon was ever exposed to the public…simply wrong place at the wrong time.
You can imagine how this whole situation snowballed. Somewhere in the whole process, not having anything to hide, John willingly expressed under duress, without legal representation or advice, his lifetime hobby with antique military artifacts, rifles and pistols. Some as old as 1892 and others
That are in-operable collectibles such as antique, left over one time use "launch tube" which was purchased as model conversation piece. This hobby is a collection that has spanned over 35 years stemming from his service in the Army as a member of 10th Special Forces Group, Airborne Trooper and as a NCO and master mechanic and weapons trainer for up and coming troops in the Army’s 361st& 693rd Quartermaster Co and while deployed for 9/11 overseas.
John is a 20 plus year combat veteran who served and completed his term Honorably. He has never been arrested or had any run ins with the law. He has volunteered for the community and has helped many others in need. He is a single father, homeowner living his American dream raising his son. Now because of a mis-interpretation of how he is being portrayed on social media, we his family and friends fear for his excellent reputation and livelihood. Please help us assist a Veteran in need who fought and served his country with pride so he can receive the best legal representation. Thank you in Advance.
