Someone doesn't want citizens interfering with the poll thugs...

Carry on. No matter what law they pass, I know I'll be.

It wasn't already ironic enough that we restrict speech while the "free" citizens vote? Are they going for infringing the full Bill of Rights at polling places? Maybe some warrantless searches and cruel and unusual punishment while you wait to vote? House a few troops in your house during peacetime while you're out?

You should be expected there to tend to the troop's needs.

Greater good and all. 'Murcia!

Saw "22 July" on Netflix. A true story in Norway22 July revisits the 2011 terrorist attacks in Norway, carried out by Anders Behring Breivik. Within two hours, he bombed a government building in Oslo and carried out a mass shooting at a summer camp on the island of Utøya. In total, Breivik murdered 77 people and injured over 300 more,..." He wanted to kill the young generation b/c they will vote and wanted kumby-ya with immigrants flooding in Norway. He believed he used the Constituion to save his country Norway.

Unfortunately, he would have to kill the whole generation, when all he needed to was to concentrate on a few, i.e. the law makers.

Interesting proposed law. Many polling places are in school buildings. I figure it's closed (as a school) and I'm there for legal purpose.

Take minute to read the dweebs memo. You'll see he points out that Police are not allowed in polling places. But he fails to mention that Constables are (IIRC). Many Constables are permitted to carry.

Yes, constables can carry, even in polls in schools.
