see page 2
I don't believe they can ban firearms under pre-emption as a public facility

Re: Carrying in the Bucks County Libraries
As a sidebar, we often visit the big library in downtown York while I am open-carrying. It has only ever generated some very nice conversations about OC/CC and the 2A.
While many claim to support the right, precious few support the practice.

Re: Carrying in the Bucks County Libraries
"Weapons are not permitted: “Any bomb, grenade, machine gun, sawed-off shotgun with a barrel less than 18 inches, firearm specially made or specially adapted for concealment or silent discharge, any blackjack, sandbag, metal knuckles, dagger, knife, razor or cutting instrument, the blade of which is exposed in an automatic way by switch, push-button, spring mechanism, or otherwise, or other implement for the infliction of serious bodily injury which serves no common lawful purpose.”
(PA Title 18 CS 908)"
Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but what does 908 have to do with carrying a firearm?I can tell you've been rady8ed, you have a nice glow about you.

Which serves no lawful purpose....Self defense is a lawful purpose.

Re: Carrying in the Bucks County Libraries
They being of the literary knowledgeable business, know that you cite the source of any works your lift verbatim to avoid being a plagiarizer. 908 does not restrict "uses or possesses any firearm for purposes not prohibited by the laws of this Commonwealth" by exception (908(b)(3)).
It says 'common' but, in any event, that phase only applies to "other implement for the infliction of serious bodily injury".
They simply borrowed an all-encompassing definition from 908 which would also cover s.6102 firearms. Since they simply said "Weapons are not permitted" and then defined weapons, they have prohibited OC/CC as well as other forms of possession.Last edited by tl_3237; April 15th, 2013 at 08:14 PM.
