So, does this mean that if some civilian, or even a military person not on duty, sees the sniper in action and takes him out with their own legally owned firearm, that person will be charged with violation of this "order"?
What are they going to do if they detect gunfire, call in an Arc Light mission? Sheesh. Or does the gov think the sniper or snipers will say to themselves: "Oh gee, the Governor has forbidden discharge of a firearm, so I guess I (we) will have to stop now". Or will he figure that they are somehow going to zero in on gunfire, so he'll turn to other means, like car bombs or somesuch?
Brian Wilson reported that the Governor stated that the police have enough to do without responding to recreational shooting that callers to 9-1-1 may think are the sniper.
