The current controversy (and many lawsuits) focuses on the "posting" provision in our new concealed carry law. Many of us have been arguing that posting only amounts to declaring a place to be a GDVZ (Guaranteed Defenseless Victim Zone).

The cop was only complying with the law. Under the current law he could at best have a gun unloaded, cased, and locked in the trunk of his car.

Strangely enough, *none* of the news stories I've seen so far include those last four frames from the surveillance camera. I wonder why?

Yes, I agree the sign makes it a GDVZ.

The story says the guy reentered the bar. There must of been a disturbance the cop probably would have been aware of. Being a cop he should have known the guy would likely come back, or be hiding outside waiting for a victim. He should have been suspicious, checked it out and been ready for the return. At minimum he should have pursued the perp at enough distance to ID a plate, on foot route and made an attempt to retrieve his gun, radio and make and arrest, or shoot him. Now the perp is loose and will endanger others.

" Strangely enough, *none* of the news stories..."

Liberal media in a liberal town.
