Macon-Bibb officials talk of push back on new gun law

Macon-Bibb County Commissioner Al Tillman hopes someone will mount a legal challenge to block the July 1 implementation of Georgia’s new gun law.

But in the longer term, he wants a concerted effort to scale back the authorization for guns in various public places.

The concern is twofold, he said: expense and safety. In discussing hot-button issues, he’s often heard people talk about what they’d do “if I had my gun.”

“Well, now, folks will have their gun,” said Tillman, himself a gun owner who thinks the new law goes too far in removing oversight.

It's about how many penis and Ted Nugent references they can get in a single thread and what cartoons they can co-opt, instead of coming up with an actual POV in their own words.

The height of gun control success seems to be how many posts can you get hidden by a jury.

The aforementioned banned poster is annoying,

But the one that consistently uses Child Porn references as a metaphor, really creeps me out.

It would be nice if the OP would bother to comment at least occasionally.
