A Victory in Chambersburg

Greg Rotz says he did nothing illegal when he brought his openly carried firearm to a voting precinct on election night in November.

According to state law, he's right. That's why after a very short hearing Tuesday afternoon, a judge decided Rotz's permit should be returned.

Two questions:

Since when do rogue sheriffs get to make up their own laws with no personal consequences for when they're caught doing it?

Why hasn't the name of the fascist constable been made public, and what the hell does his being comfortable have to do with our rights?

Be sure and watch the accompanying video. The reporter's last statement is worth noting: One of the reasons this came to a swift and successful conclusion is because of Internet mobilizing of gun rights activists. Fulfilling their supposed role as government watchdogs better than they do is another reason why so many "Authorized Journalists" resent and disparage the "amateurs."

The funny thing is, no permit is required in PA to openly carry, except in Philadelphia.

So this whole thing was BS from beginning to end.

The revocation of his CONCEALED carry permit was just icing on the cake for his harassers, apparently.
