“gun shows conflict with the county’s mission of “promoting the health and well-being of our residents”

Without guns in the hands of responsible
citizens, their health and well being are
in jeopardy. Should read “demoting the
health and well being of our citizens.”

I was going to make the point that if you look at this from a business perspective - then sure, as a business the fairgrounds should have the right to refuse service to anyone. Gee, just like a Christian baker or photographer should be able to refuse service to anyone.

I do support that notion. However, the fairgrounds isn't just a business - it is, as I understand it, a County fairgrounds. I don't think a government-affiliated or funded entity can discriminate, nor can they infringe on our Constitutionally protected rights.
