It's time to vote some people out of office.

Agreed!!!

A "changing of the guard" at the court house is sorely needed and long overdue.

I REALLY need to change my voter registration to this county for sure....

What a waste of time and tax dollars, all these municipalities convening to consider a "mini-repeal" of the 2nd Amendment. Their time would be best spent tracking down wanted felons and full enforcement of criminal laws.

The city council voted Thursday night to opt out of a state law that allows carry-permit holders to bring handguns into state, county and city parks.

I thought they could just vote to keep HCP holders out of county and city parks not State parks I'm I wrong on this?

No, you are not wrong. The state law allowed carry in state and local parks, but gave localities the option to still post just local parks. It was just another very poorly worded piece of journalism...no surprise.
