Harrisburg Mayor Pulls Police From NRA Gun Show

[gnbrotz]

I get the feeling that security isn't really a big deal at the NRA show.

Probably not, but it probably IS a requirement of their insurance carrier, just like the "no loaded firearms" bullshit.

[Statkowski]

They should really piss the mayor off and hire some Three Percenters to "stand guard".

Anyone hired would have to be Act 235 qualified, or exempt (as cops are).

the NRA turned around and made a $25K donation to the Civil War Museum which the Harrisburg mayor hates. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.............someone is going to make money providing security, it just won't be Harrisburg PD.

Police not getting their overtime pay? Bad for the Mayor.

It is unfortunate that some Harrisburg PD won't be able to pick up a little extra money for a gig that is probably one that is less difficult to service than other assignments (controlling traffic, letting a whole host of law-abiding citizens go about their business and enjoy themselves).

Why does the Harrisburg Mayor hate a Civil War museum? That just sounds weird. Is there a Confederate emblem in it or something like that?

Building owned by city. Former Mayor Reed set it up and gave the museum a $1 a year lease. Current mayor hates most things Reed and also sees a potential to extract more cash and is prohibited from doing so.

Sounds like an opportunity for someone

And so goes worldly politics. It's a downright shame America fell into it.

After all of this, I will have to visit the museum. Maybe after attending the next gun rights rally or the Outdoor Show.

Can one or all of the other PDs around Harrisburg supply security with their off duty personnel?

Just clicked on the link and answered my own question, screw Platapussy.

Well at least we don't have to worry about being hit by stray bullets and any stray dogs in the area can now breath safer now. Mayors a scum bag and the police should complain due to the over time they are loosing out on.

Yeah but pappenpuss has one sweet combover though.
