A staffer at left-wing Media Matters for America committed numerous
felonies in the District of Columbia and around the country by carrying a
firearm to defend the organization’s founder, David Brock, The Daily
Caller has learned.
According to a knowledgeable source, multiple firearms used to protect
the Media Matters founder were purchased with Brock’s blessing — and
apparently with the group’s money.
It was previously reported that Brock’s one-time aide, Haydn
Price-Morris, carried a concealed Glock handgun as he traveled with the
liberal leader to public events in Washington, D.C.
But the extent of Brock’s armed activities have been largely unknown until now, even among those closest to him.
Brock, whose struggles with mental health have seen him hospitalized
in the past, became increasingly concerned by late 2010 that he was
being targeted by right-wing assassins.
It was discovered by that time, Brock had armed his assistant — who
had no permit to carry a concealed firearm — with a Glock handgun.
According to somes internal email exchanes, the gun was purchased
with cash in Maryland, likely to diminish the chances such a purchase
would appear on the tax-exempt group’s books…
