Wow.

Edit: Obviously, we all knew that this was the reality of these proposed laws...but I'm a little shocked that Zappala was proactive in sending such a letter...

This is awesome. Sometimes our system of government does work. Helped in no small part by the rally I'm sure...

I won't claim I helped because I'm sure I'm not the only one that wrote to him, but I sent him a letter asking if he intends on holding them accountable.

What do you make of this comment?

Tim McNulty, spokesman for the mayor’s office, said only that “the city is not sharing its legal strategy on these bills.”

What could they have up their sleeves?

Supposedly they have a private firm helping them but won't disclose. Talk about transparency.

HA! Most transparent administration my ass. I'd love to know what company is supposedly bankrolling them. We need to find out and rally in front of their offices.

That's funny because the story reads that at least one Allegheny County resident would most likely file suit against them and your name came to mind. Or are you in Beaver County? (Actually kind of irrelevant, your name still came to mind)

If they decide not to pursue these illegal bills - does that mean the 24th won’t need people to attend ?
Also - kdka had a short blurb on the noon news - conveniently showing a guy operating a full auto Rifle (or was it a bumpstock?) I never saw or shot one.- nonetheless way to mislead !! Most of us - one trigger pull - one shot
