  1. I sense a false flag on the horizon…so my eight ball says… the smoke signals are on the horizon…
    Don’t fall for it people — any violence WILL be manufactured.
    Qui bono on a narrative like this?

  2. Town Clerks are given Narcan spray and active shooter training but citizens are not allowed to have guns at the polling place-great logic. We have a sign posted on the front door of our municipal building (where voting will take place) that informs all that they are not allowed to have guns at the polling place. I’m sure that anyone intent on shooting up a polling place, upon seeing that sign, will immediately disarm themselves and take their gun back to their car-yeah right. I have been a BCA member and worked at the polls for over 25 years. I know of several citizens who were carrying concealed who worked the polls or who came in to vote, and I was always glad to have them around. Now, all that is standing between poll workers and voters and to protect them from a would be shooter is a sign on the door. Just like schools and hospitals, the polls are now a “gun free zone” and unprotected from any criminal and ripe for a shooter who prefers unarmed victims. Perhaps the Secretary of State should at least give Town Clerks enough pepper spray to arm poll workers who wish to have it instead of just Narcan spray. It kind of shows who the State government really wants to protect.

    Our State and Federal Constitutions protect our right to protect ourselves. The Vermont Legislature in recent years has worked to infringe upon that right. I believe that now, instead of trying to take away our right to bear arms (carry concealed) they are instead working to infringe upon that right by limiting the places where one can carry a gun. After all, what value does the right to carry a gun have when you are restricted from carrying it at many locations.

    I suggest that readers Google the essay “Sheep, Wolves and Sheepdogs” to better understand the mindset of those who wish carry a gun.

  3. Yes, gun free zones, what a novel concept, that tells the criminals and crazies to come on in and end your frustrations, they tried it with Trump, and you think you’ll be safe with a sign !!

    This is what we have for leadership, no common sense but they’ll be pushing these practices until something happens and then it will be the guns fault and not the perpetrators, the only ones obeying these feckless signs will be the law abiding citizens, remember when your voting,, vote these inept clowns out !!
