Re: Municipalities in violation of §6120 (Preemption)
great idea for a post great. here is another one you can add to the list:
Allegheny county
Status: Currently in place. No known incidents where it was enforced.
Enacted: ?
Statkowski wrote a letter to the county explaining that they were in violation of preemption. they wrote back ignoring that and saying the would continue to enforce the ordinance. you can read more here: http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum46/160.html.
A county ordinance bans carrying loaded guns on all airport property (not just sterile areas) even if you have an LTCF.
here is the code:
