Re: Civil Protection Ordinance
- DANGER BAD LAW-
This law bans all discharge of firearms in the area, limiting the implied right to do so.
It would outlaw hunting in the area as well.
Quote:

C. USE OF FIREARMS: No person shall fire a gun, pistol or other firearm in the borough , except in fear of life as governed by the laws of the Commonwealth, and except peace officers or military forces of this state or the United States in the discharge of official duties.

Gun ownership isn't to promote dust growth on the trigger.
You cannot promote safe gun ownership if the individual owning the gun can't shoot it to develop the necessary skills to operate it safely.
---- An exception for legally run gun ranges and areas of land in which are X acres or more in which no occupied structure(s) are/is present within X amount of distance -- would correct this incredibly large and right limiting oversite!
Reading this bill I would think its real intent is overt, though I'm assuming that isn't your true intent.
I don't approve at all.
The NRA would give this law a big fat F
If your intention was to write a good law promoting the tolerance of gun ownership change or remove Section C
Sorry if I came off too harsh, its not my intention but if I heard about this law in my area I'd be at the meeting to object!
