Notes From HPS

Acknowledging a necessary self-imposed silence as they marshal their legal resources following a March raid by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives in which polymer precursor receivers were seized, EP Armory (the manufacturer that supplied Ares Armor, itself the subject of ATF raids) issued a statement Monday updating customers and supporters on the status of their legal plight.
Drop by David’s place to read what they said. They are in a fight against the forces of darkness, and I’m sure that the privacy rights of their customers has already been violated. Copies have been made and filed, you can be sure.
There’s a reason that the anti-self-defense zealots refuse to make a distinction between the concepts of “guns everywhere,” and “guns everywhere except where there is no potential need for them.” It’s because even they lack the audacity to try to dispute the fact that no such distinction exists.
Kurt’s love of logic is a wonderful thing. Truly it is.
Does the new WV gun law cause confusion?
“I think the intent of that was to say that if the rec center has a place that would enable the person with a concealed carry permit to lock it away so there’s no way anyone else could get to it, then they can do that,” Palumbo said. “Otherwise the gun would have to be locked in a vehicle.”
[ … ]
However, the National Rifle Association has an entirely different interpretation. The NRA’s legal division said, “It is clear that a person with a concealed carry license can (emphasis added) carry a firearm concealed in a ‘municipally owned recreation facility’ even if the facility does provide for secure storage (emphasis added).”
Why is this so hard for everyone? It isn’t hard for me. Here’s the deal. They are talking about recreational facilities. Folks come in to play sports. They cannot do that with a carry gun. They need a storage location in order to secure their weapon. For the folks who come in to manage, watch and score the games, if they have a permit they can carry on their person. Again, what’s so hard to understand about this? See also the emotional meltdown by anti-gunner Danny Jones. It’s still good for a laugh.
