WI:City committee approves $47,500 settlement with gun rights activist

It does not appear that these charges and settlement have anything to do with "gun rights activism":

A Milwaukee Common Council committee on Wednesday unanimously  approved a $47,500 payment to settle a federal civil rights lawsuit by a man who claimed he was unlawfully stopped, searched and arrested by police.

The money would go to Nazir Al-Mujaahid,  who several months after the questionable arrest  gained attention in January 2012  when became the first Wisconsin concealed carry permit holder to prevent a crime. He shot an armed robber in a crowded Aldi grocery store.  The robber survived and was convicted. Al-Mujaahid was not charged, but did sue to get his gun back from police.
