James Schiliro, mayor of Marcus Hook, Pa., was one of the few Republican members of Michael Bloomberg’s “Mayors Against Illegal Guns” group. Now, however, Schiliro has been scrubbed from the group’s Web site. Gee, I wonder why?

The mayor of Marcus Hook was charged [March 21] with holding an acquaintance hostage during a drunken encounter at his home last month that allegedly ended with the mayor’s firing a gun into the floor.

During the encounter, Mayor James D. Schiliro repeatedly offered to perform a sex act with the 20-year-old male, according to police. . . .

Schiliro, 38, was arraigned Thursday before District Judge David R. Griffin, who set unsecured bail at $50,000. Schiliro was charged with recklessly endangering another person, unlawful restraint, false imprisonment, furnishing alcohol to a minor, and official oppression. . . .

According to court records, on the night of Feb. 21 Schiliro sent a text message to the man, whom he had known for several years.

He later ordered a borough police officer to pick the man up in Trainer and take him to Schiliro’s home in a police vehicle. While there, the man said, he was given what he believed were three glasses of wine.

According to the man, Schiliro, who was intoxicated, asked repeatedly whether he could perform oral sex on him. . . .

According to court records, Schiliro waved three handguns during the encounter. At one point, he put a gun to his head and said “he didn’t want to live anymore,” according to court documents.

Remember, these are only allegations, and I especially caution against generalizing from this example to presume that all Republicans who support gun control are dangerous cocksuckers.

At least, not literally . . .

UPDATE: My apologies to New Jersey residents for mistakenly placing the Pennsylvania town in your state. Corrected.

UPDATE II: Welcome, Instapundit readers! And in the interests of bipartisan non-judgmentalism, I’ll quote this Reddit commenter:

But seriously, blowjobs at gunpoint are awesome.

Well . . . who are we to judge? It’s just an alternative lifestyle choice.
