Oh what a relief it’s all just bad word choice by a man who spent his career teaching at a university.

I smell bullshite excuse. His high-power ATL 36X ought to be able to be proven what it was by his receipt.

ATL is automatic telephoto lens. 36X is the zoom or focal length or something like that.
Photo people use the word 'shoot' all the time. If he actually said 'ATL 36X' at the meeting, then this is a nothing burger.
They took a firearm from him - is no one concerned about that? Seems wildly unconstitutional, unless there's more to this.

Why would this teacher be concerned about a camera getting into the wrong hands?

So, he never said "gun".

He's just showing his arse.

Yeah, He's an idiot that thinks what he was saying was cute. The reason he had his words written down was so his speaking would come across as intended, as if he was going to assassinate the President,

Probably can't be charged much with this "misunderstanding", However, he should be "Taken for the ride" anyway. $30K or $40K out of his pocket to defend his stupid cute stunt might make him think twice. Probably not.

The ATL 36X refers to a high-powered telephoto lens that can be used for photography, particularly for capturing distant subjects. It gained attention recently due to a controversial comment made by an individual regarding its intended use.

And to accept that he was unaware of the "controversy" he 'accidentally' created is laughable.

It is obvious he is playing word games to make snide remarks that would/could be interpreted as a threat.

That would be an OK 'joking comment' among friends who were just bullshitting along = but to make this strange comment in a city council meeting with nothing to indicate humor or intent is laughable.

He knew what he was doing - make an example of this a-hole - at least make his life miserable with search warrants plundering his wife's underwear drawer.

A college professor. I'm shocked.

That fat pussy nerd has never fired a gun in his fricking life. He ain't gonna' do shite. Arrest his bitch arse anyway and prosecute him to the full extent of the law.
