Showdown looms for Raymore gun law (Missouri)

[shadowrider]

The debate over the upcoming gun election in Raymore makes it sound like the city has an abnormally high rate of mental instability.

Both sides talk a lot about “crazy” people.

The anti-gun crowd worries that a City Council member could go “crazy” during a contentious meeting, pull a gun and start shooting. The pro-gun forces fear a “crazy,” irate citizen may come through the door blasting and a well-armed council may be the last line of defense.

Neither is likely to happen. This will: On Nov. 2, this city is headed for a showdown.

Residents that day will vote on a ballot question that, if passed, would amend the city charter and do away with an ordinance passed this year that allows council members to carry concealed weapons during meetings.

The ordinance also lets anyone with a conceal-and-carry permit to take a gun into city buildings and parks, and makes it legal to transport a gun in a vehicle even if the person does not have a conceal-and-carry permit.

1. That has been the law in Texas for years.

No problems as far as I know.
