Like everyone else, I've been keeping a close eye on the anti-gun hysteria at the federal and state level but while we were busy with that, a local council member was making some noise and attempted to have the town council endorse a resolution that supports tougher gun control laws. Thankfully, all other members of the council (except one) did not want to have anything to do with this resolution and voted against moving on it.

Obviously, we also need to be mindful of what our local elected officials are up to and I didn't realize that at a bunch of municipalities in the state signed on to that mayors against guns coalition...

I was thinking the same thing and will be attending my town's Council meeting Wednesday night. I already know my State-level representation, District 3, is totally on-board with more gun control. UGH!

I think it's unlikely we'll have anything anti-gun out here but you never know.

 

I only wish that CCW permits were handled more locally instead of at the superior court in Morris County. They'd be more sympathetic up here I think.

Where is the meeting, time and place if possible.
