A group of two dozen supporters applauded and cheered when Lebanon County President Judge Robert J. Eby announced his decision yesterday to restore Meleanie Hain’s concealed-weapons permit ‘I wasn’t surprised,’ 37-year-old Greg Rotz said of Eby’s ruling. Rotz faced similar charges after he wore a sidearm to his voting precinct on Election Day last November, later receiving a letter from the Franklin County sheriff demanding that he turn over his handgun. He appealed the decision and was vindicated in January when a judge threw out the case.” Source: Lebanon Daily News 10/15/08</I><BR/><BR/>PA law allows anyone who is legally allowed to buy a gun to carry it in plain sight without any permits, except in Philly. A CCW permit is required to carry concealed anywhere in the state (except Govt bldgs & schools), and to carry openly in Philly.<BR/><BR/>She was probably satirizing this little over-step by an overzealous sheriff.Mark Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155390616574310800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6782792124434572025.post-36344237395380120702008-10-21T12:15:00.000-04:002008-10-21T12:15:00.000-04:00Yeah, now that I think about it, it is pretty obvi...Yeah, now that I think about it, it is pretty obvious.CityKinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068481950069401281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6782792124434572025.post-6367873168720727642008-10-21T11:40:00.000-04:002008-10-21T11:40:00.000-04:00It is totally a joke.It is totally a joke.Feoshiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16206862327302282315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6782792124434572025.post-63241582479214515422008-10-21T11:21:00.000-04:002008-10-21T11:21:00.000-04:00Mark, are you sure?

Any one of the incidents she describes is sufficient grounds to revoke a concealed carry permit.<BR/><BR/>It probably got a lot of laughs among rural folks where gun ownership approaches 100%. City folks would, of course, rightfully be horrified. Unfortunately both reactions were probably her intent. It's impolite to go alarming urbanites like that. That's why PA has different gun rules for Philly than they do for the rest of the state. Real gunners are always cautious and quiet about it.Mark Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155390616574310800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6782792124434572025.post-9946306004184265912008-10-21T09:57:00.000-04:002008-10-21T09:57:00.000-04:00That's insane.Why would you feel safer if you were...That's insane.<BR/>Why would you feel safer if you were only going to use your weapon like a starting pistol anyway ?Quimbobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14414025266566849822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6782792124434572025.post-69918835560760069522008-10-21T09:36:00.000-04:002008-10-21T09:36:00.000-04:00Gadzooks!Gadzooks!Radarmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07490374472499934197noreply@blogger.com
