Good to have a rep there, even a young whippersnapper.
Doesn't Liberty University own Campbell County?

Only 80%. And they pretty much get what they want.
I don't know if OC is permitted there so if not, it will be an empty holster protest. I'm up for a good argument with the deputy on duty.
And it won't be an NRA hat. Cannot find the nice clean one. So it will be favorite Christmas present. A black Don't Tread on Me rattlesnake hat.

Municipalites cannot regulate/control the method/means of carry - little thing called state preemption.

The constitutional principle is the same no matter where you are in the United by GOD States of America.......
Tell it to the men in robes.
I understand your point and trust you relate to mine.

A Illinois case that can be cited (and it was the right to practice to acquire and maintain proficiency that came out of the case too) but are not bound by. Ask them if they accept the decision.
And are state courts technically bound to federal decisions anyway (like lizzurds even care ~ even federal courts ignore the federal constitution and upper courts' case law).
Even the idea that lower courts are bound to upper court's decisions is "made up" ... there is zero penalty for a lower court to follow a higher court ... we just have to "trust" them.
Put a penalty for a lower court not to follow a higher court's decision .. like 20 yrs in prison...

Sounds right.
Short story of the meeting. Several other things up for consideration on rezoning. Range was 3-4 on the list. Several spoke in favor, couple against regarding noise, road access and such.
7 Member BoS. 6 in favor, 1 abstain due to employment by LU. Side note, 1 of the yes votes also made public and read opinion letter that he could vote yay or nay despite his employment by LU as long as he could do so without his employment causing any kind of bend one way or the other in his vote.
Over next year or so Lynchburg will be getting one FINE range. :banana: Including rifle, pistol, archery as well as trap/skeet. Will be open to public and minimal if any cost.
MELIKES!!!
