"District Attorney Michael Jackson says he's pursued the case because historical tourism is important to Selma's economy and he wants to protect the area's artifacts."
That is exactly what any jackass wannabee district attorney trying to advance his flagging career and get his name in the news would say, and all at the expense of a citizen.
Historicial tourism protected for whom? The fish to look at rifles sitting on the bottom of rivers?! These guys must be former propaganda writers for the old Soviet Tass news agency.....
What a complete and total ass.....
