Well, we’re carrying in Allentown,
with a gun that holds 17 rounds.
but before the town said nay, nay, nay
No guns in parks, out you must stay...

The tactic of suing cities who unlawful anti-gun measures is giving the freedom haters fits. They see the NRA as bullying the cities who cannot afford to fight the lawsuit (and most probably lose).

Does anyone know of a city council that isn’t corrupt?

What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. The ACLU has been using this tactic for years to curtail freedom of religion.

The left hates it when you use their tactics against them.

Not surprised. On the east coast, you could jail all of them wholesale, and probably not make a mistake : )

. . . end a requirement that people report when their guns are lost or stolen.

Supposedly, this was to nail the Straw Purchasers who were tracked down and used that excuse. In reality, it would, if confiscation ever began, nail the gun owner who claimed the same. Small steps, small steps.

When I said ‘few’, I really meant ‘few’. Southern towns have always been corrupt to an extent. Even small towns. They would make Chicago look like amateurs.................

Me Too. Saw him in concert about 4 years ago. He played for 2 and 1/2 hours, no opening group. He’s still got it.
