Issues with a rally this coming June in Erie.
Well, an OC rally has been scheduled for June 22 in Erie. However, there are currently some issues.
Gregory Karle, the City Solicitor, has made it clear that they will be enforcing their preemption violation. With the threat of a fine up to $1,000 and up to 90 days in jail.
Now, Justin, who is organizing the rally, is working with an attorney. And regardless, I am going. If everyone could show some support, the link the to facebook posting is here: https://www.facebook.com/OpenCarryPennsylvania
I didn't put it in the events section, because I am not really trying to invite everyone. Just please, keep updated on this, and show support to those of us involved.
If anyone has any suggestions, or words of encouragement, feel free to post them up on the facebook. Or post them here if you don't have facebook, and I can relay the message.
More information is available on the page as well. Including the letter that was sent to Mr. Karle.I'm so fast, I can bump fire a bolt action.

What's the story on their preemption? What exactly is "illegal"?

Re: Issues with a rally this coming June in Erie.
Looking for it now. And I also came across the fact that Erie has a last and stolen firearm law on the books as well.
Here is the lost/stolen

Looking for a link to the preemption one about carrying. But it is the standard balogna.

Managed to find it in PDF. 955.06 looks to be page 149 of the PDF.

955.10 even explains that they can kick us out, and seize our weapons.I'm so fast, I can bump fire a bolt action.

Re: Issues with a rally this coming June in Erie.
It would be a nice touch if the person running the Facebook page/group had a better grasp of proper writing technique (capitalization, spelling, etc.). IMO, a big part of successful activism is presenting one's side in a clear and professional manner, so as not to perpetuate the 'dumb redneck gun owner' stereotype.
