    Free market, how does that work?
    You've never experienced a truly free market. If there was such a thing there would far fewer renters and more land owners.

    Tell me what free market forces are at work here? The owner bought that property with taxpayer money not his own labor/property. He gets tenets because the artificial economy keeps people from saving.

    It's a measure of the civility in this country that no ones seems to fear constantly pissing off the people who own lots of guns.

    Damn this touchscreen.
    The property management company Was "Ross Management Group" which is contracted by the Hosing Authority, two separate entities. The property is owned by the Douglas County housing authority which was purchased by Federal and tax payer funds for low income seniors etc. The Property management company was the one trying to enforce the "No guns" policy.

    The emergency session with the housing took place this afternoon, pretty fast for government. Probably because of all the press.


    9News update


    Ross Property management Group are the "anti gun" dirt-bags.

    This was a SNAP! in your face remark to Ross Property Management, glad the housing Authority still believes in Rights;
    "These community policy changes were distributed without the knowledge or authorization of the Board of Directors of the Douglas County Housing Partnership or its staff," a Douglas County Housing Partnership release said. "This board does not support any action that infringes on an individual's rights and will not allow Ross Management to implement these changes. The mission of the Douglas County Housing partnership is to preserve and develop safe, secure, quality housing while providing housing choices for those who have few,"


    This explains a lot of why Ross Property Management came up with the "Anti gun" Policy. The company's owner, Debi Ross, and her husband have given $9,000, only to Democrats, since 2006.


    This picture makes me laugh, when 9 news went to Ross Managements Group office they shut the door in their face.

    At least the board of directors of the housing authority are the good guys. Who knows about the rest of the employees of the authority and their specific involvement. At least when the board got word of this they acted swiftly.

    Damn this touchscreen.

    I know. I'm trying to rag on the management company. The bigger management companies get, the more crappy they seem to get.

    You were being farcastic, didn't catch it, you forgot the smiley.

    Ross knows they f'dup, I glanced at their background and Ross is big with the whole Federal/State HUD thing, Section 8, Tax credit, low income, seniors apartment programs. They dont appear to be really HUGE. I see the typical "Political" Social engineering with some of these programs, such as section 8, but I bet Ross was following the agenda of "anti-gun" as other businesses have done in the last 8 months.
