So, there are people conducting themselves in a legal manner, breaking no laws what so ever, and the police chief seeks to strip them of their right to conduct themselves in this legal manner?
I thought the current political climate was for REDUCED government and regulation, not INCREASED!
As the chief has already stated, with a CCW this "person" if they have a permit, simply will be required to dress differently and cover his firearm with his shirt. Hmmm, how does that equate to "proactive" solutions to a problem? By the way, what is it again that is the problem?
No one but police should openly carry a firearm? Seems to me the chief needs to clean up his own yard before running off at the mouth about others! Instead of as quoted in the Missourian as an "accidental shooting" why not reference it for what it really was, a NEGLIGENT shooting! Seems one of his officers never learned that you keep your finger off the trigger except when ready to fire the weapon and shot himself in the leg last year. http://www.emissourian.com/news/top_stories/article_da7f58ca-8bc9-11e0-8dcb-001cc4c002e0.html
I for one am offended at the chief's remarks and attempt at restricting the rights of all citizens who visit or live in Washington MO. Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones chief and your windows are dirty!
I hope the concerned citizens of Washington MO will have the good sense to contact the leaders and ask them if they are truly leaders or if they like the chief seek to be rulers.
I for one support and pray Senator Nieves gets his bill through to prevent these power mongers from trampling the Constitution they swore to uphold and give all citizens in the great state of Missouri the rights they were guaranteed! These goofballs who keep trying to exercise power over the citizens instead of remembering the oath they took need to be booted to the curb.
