Got this email from Harry Schneider with some good intel for the judges.
Tuesday May 15, 2007 is primary election day in PA.
The best guide for gun owners is compiled by 'Firearms Owners Against
Crime'. FOAC endorses candidates from local to statewide.
Please visit the FOAC website at
http://www.foac-pac.org see and print
out
voters guides for your area.
If you are a Democrat, your choice is simple, for statewide office
there is
'Seamus McCaffery' for Supreme Court. FOAC guides will help you with
county offices however.
If you are a Republican, you have several FOAC endorsed choices. For
Supreme Court, there is 'Maureen Lally-Green'. While the PSA does not
endorse candidates, I have known Judge Lally-Green for several years
and
personally recommend her. For many years Judge Lally-Green did work
for
former Supreme Court Chief Justice Flaherty and was greatly influenced
by
him. The following is an extract from a decision written by Chief
Justice
Flaherty:
"The right of the citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves and
the
State shall not be questioned...Because the ownership of firearms is
constitutionally protected, its regulation is a matter of statewide
concern.
The constitution does not provide that the right to bear arms shall not
be
questioned in any part of the commonwealth except Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh, where it may be abridged at will, but that it shall not be
questioned in any part of the commonwealth." SUPREME COURT OF
PENNSYLVANIA,
545 Pa. 279; 681 A.2d 152; 1996 Pa. LEXIS 1447, May 1, 1996, ARGUED
July
18, 1996, DECIDED
If you want to see that kind of honest interpretation restored to
Pennsylvania Courts, you need to get out on Tuesday and vote as if your
freedom depends on it. Use the FOAC
http://www.foac-pac.org voters
guide
for your area. Please forward this to your friends.
