NO GUNS at the Bloomsburg Fair
We need to remind the fair organizers about the fate of the PA Outdoor Show after their antigun decissions!

They even quote there has never been a firearm related issue in the article.

Re: NO GUNS at the Bloomsburg Fair
"Barratt said he couldn't recall any instances of gunfire at the fair, although there have been a few stabbings."
Did they ban knives at the time of the stabbings?

Re: NO GUNS at the Bloomsburg Fair
I sent the following email to Mr. Barratt. Not expecting much in return!
Sir,
I am a retired police officer having been employed for over 37 years in that capacity, in this Commonwealth. During my career I advanced from a rookie part time patrolman, through the ranks, full time, which included the position of Chief of Police.
During this time period, I never have felt threatened by any lawfully carrying citizen. I'm referring to those that have obtained the necessary LTC (License To Carry) permit, issued by their respective county. However, there were many occasions in my career when I felt threatened by criminals. These are not your law abiding individuals, thus they will not comply with your "prohibition". As a note, there have been countless times that a licensed gun carrier has assisted a police officer during an altercation.
You need to rethink your position and concentrate on the actual solution to a problem you have little control over...the individual who doesn't care about your "law".
Sadly, I and my family have decided not to attend your fair this year. We've made this decision purely because of the position you took prohibiting firearms.
The courtesy of a reply is requested.
Sincerely,
(signature)
