[concerned about politics]

Since Pennsylvanians reelected the same dufus’s this time around maybe they can blame each other for the lost $$$ from this fiasco.

All kinds of local/state businesses participate. Food vendors, clothing shops, boat dealers, small transport, the hunters/ fishers use knives, binoculars, hedge clipping equipment, fishing poles/tackle, tents, t-shirts....
This is not just a gun show. It's a sporting goods show. A very big one. A lot of money gets spent there. A lot of money gets brought into the state.

[who knows what evil?]

A lot of money gets brought into the state.

Not now. A lot of tax revenue up in smoke as well; I'd wager.

A lot of money gets brought into the state.

That's the message I sent to my governor who is trying to weasel out of dealing with pro second amendment bills being introduced by claiming that his priority is jobs.

I understand that I live in Dauphin county. I also know more people who voted for Obama and Casey then voted for republicans in Dauphin county. They get to own part of this due to the Presidents rhetoric that started the escalation of this show closing. Just like three weeks ago when I had to explain why they had less money in their paychecks. Voting has consequences.
