Post by: kathy1 on August 07, 2013, 05:03:20 PM
just came across this TV news item and wanted to solicit feedback/comments.  What if this were to happen in Delaware?  What could we do about it?  And, more importantly would we do anything about it or just talk????????????????? Interesting sad state of affairs.  Copy into your browser, hope I did it right

Considering this seems to be a 2nd amendment issue I think this has to play out.  If it holds in favor of the owner then open carry is out.  I would still carry as a CCDW holder.  Personal and property searches are still unlawful without a warrant.

I’ve lived in all kinds of places and have heard “no smoking”, “no pets” and “no unregistered vehicles” but never “no drugs”, “no gambling” either.  Must be a local reason why this owner is anti-American.

Seems it took care of itself. Also, making news like this public is basically hanging a huge sign for criminals that says "We're not armed, come on in." Where are people's minds these days?

Glad this is dead. If I lived there, my personal inclination would have been:
--Move (to an apartment not owned by evil scum).
--Sue the pants off the evil scum for making me move, including every cent it cost right down to stamps, envelopes, change fees from utilities, gas, oil, wear on my tires, etc... and a few million for emotional distress.

I worked at the opening of a retirement community in PA, and the subject of guns came up. The director said, "Many of the people who move into our community will own guns. Their guns weren't a problem before they came here, and they won't be a problem now. Nobody in our employ will ask any applicant or resident about guns under any circumstances."
I liked that guy. A lot.

Being a Colorado native, and most of my family still live there, I follow CO news.
My son informed me about this as soon as it hit the news.

CASTLE ROCK - A controversial gun policy at an apartment complex for seniors has been thrown out after a 9Wants to Know report.

The Douglas County Housing Partnership, a multi-jurisdictional housing authority, held an emergency board of directors meeting late Wednesday afternoon.

Board members decided that the policy, which would have prohibited residents from having firearms in their homes, will not go into effect.
