    Default Lancaster City Council Passes Lost/Stolen Law

    Lancaster city council passes the "lost or stolen" gun law. I didn't see this after a few searches. Just got the e-mail from the NRA.

    Mayor gray isn't worried about lawsuits being filed. Due to the fact the Brady campaign is offering free legal services.

    Ok now does that law say from the "Time" that you realize your firearm is missing or what? Being some ppl dont play with their toys everyday. I mean someone can steal it commit a crime and it would be unknown to the gun owner til the po-lease show up...

    I bet you he will start worrying once people start suing him personally.

    Why don't all the gun owners start reporting firearms missing. When they come or call, "Oh, I just found it. Thanks."

    I'd be curious to find out if the Brady Bunches legal services that their offering gratis to these wayward Cities are costing the Brady Bunch anything .

    If they've got Attorneys working Pro Bono thats one thing . But if the Brady Bunch is having to dip into their pockets to pay for all the legal battles , then there might just be a silver lining . The NRA has WAY deeper pockets then the Brady's , maybe we can cost them so much to fight all these illegal resolutions that their piggy bank will go broke ?

    Mayor Gray , Nutty and all the others may not care if the legal costs of defending their actions are " free " but Im sure we can find something they DO care about that will get their attention

    Maybe PAFOA and the other groups could figure out a way to come up with the cash to take out full page newspaper ads or billboards or something to inform the sheeple of their elected officials illegal acts ? What about You Tube PSA's , maybe they'll go viral ? The current environment is pretty ripe to highlight , foster and encourage contempt for the " do as I say , not as I do " mentality amongst elected officials . The kettle is already boiling on a national level , no reason we cant help make it boil over by turning up the heat

    In all reality there shouldn't be any need for a suit against the City to kill the bill. It should take no more than a call from the Pennsylvania Attorney General telling the City they have committed an illegal act and either withdraw the law or face the consequences under existing state law.

    Great ideas in here. I'd like to see them held criminally responsible for enacting an ordinance that they knew was illegal. Hopefully we'll get the grounds to do that in the very near future. Till then, I like the idea of making them sweat somehow...
