http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/article/20111023/GPG0603/110230639/Guns-don-t-belong-city-buildingsGREEN BAY — Even though a City Council committee has endorsed a ban on guns and other weapons in all city buildings, Green Bay aldermen recently voted to reject the ban. Guns that are registered and used for hunting, I can understand. But being allowed to carry concealed guns in public city buildings is foolish and an endangerment to public safety because guns have no place in city business.
Guns are a lawful part of hunting in restricted areas because everyone is aware there are guns being used in that area. Law enforcement officers carry guns because they are well trained in gun usage and are dedicated to upholding public laws.
Some aldermen feel that the public can carry concealed guns because gun rights are a part of our Constitution. Well, our great Constitution allowed that blacks were only three-fifths of a person and women were not allowed to vote. Things have changed and we have come to know better.
