Just got back from the meeting. Ross laid into them pretty good, first going into why what they are doing is illegal (citing a law from 1990), then talking about how they are really only keeping law-abiding people from carrying weapons in city buildings, not criminals. They only gave him 3 minutes (and interrupted him at 2.5 to let him know time would soon be up). A few members also got up and said a few words. Pat Alzeady (sp?) offered a free CCW training course to any member of the council, which was pretty quick thinking on her part and pretty generous, but I'd be suprised if any of them take her up on it. It was my first city council meeting; next time I'll be more prepared and maybe jot down a few notes of my own to mention to the board. Lots of members there, and good to see everyone out in support of our efforts.
Clem, dude, we're getting old. LOL
