The Georgia Attorney General’s office has responded to GCO’s letter requesting a repeal of the ban on possession of firearms in Stone Mountain Park. In its letter, the Attorney General succinctly informs GCO that it “respectfully disagree[s]” with GCO’s position. The letters may be viewed here.
The GCO attorney painstakingly crafts a four-page explanation of why the Stone Mountain Memorial Association is violating state law, and Assistant Attorney General Teri D. Fields squeezes her eyes shut, puts her hands over her ears and screams "LALALALA..." to keep any heretical information from getting in.
I don't know what the hell is so respectful about presuming the authority to disarm your fellow citizens and employers, Teri, or of ignoring unassailable logic and law with such a flippant and disrespectful response. In fact, Teri, you are acting in a criminal manner, willfully violating laws you are charged to uphold.
Imagine: a lawless assistant attorney general. Plus it makes you look ignorant, and incompetent as a lawyer.
Tell me something, lady--when you were a little girl, did you dream of one day growing up and becoming a corrupt mandarin and police state apologist?
Correct me if I'm wrong: Won't Sonny's signature make this a moot point?

They've been advised of something they've known -- or should have -- from the beginning: the gun prohibition is illegal under the state's preemption law. They've acknowledged that notification, so... if anyone get hassled for carrying there, they have LEGAL recourse.
ReplyDeleteThe government's reply is, in essense, "Yes, we know all that, thank you for taking the time to bring it to our attention, you potential mass murderer peasant you, and in closing, [go perform an anatomically impossible act on yourself]."
Our government... teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.

good. people can thrive in anarchy. and governments.. don't.
ReplyDeleteHi ho, hi ho, it's off to court we go...
ReplyDeleteLet's hope GCO wins court costs as well. Too bad such can't be levied directly against Ms. Fields.

ReplyDeleteCorrection:
Stone Mountain is not a "state park" because it is not run by the Department of Natural Resources. Sonny's signature only effects DNR land.
Stone Mountain is run by the Stone Mountain Memorial Association, which is a state created authority.
The authority does not have power to pass rules or ordinances in conflict with state laws. With Sonny's sig, we can show that they really are in violation of state law.
