Elbert County Sheriff opposed to local shooting: calls Boy Scouts
“Hamas”
"It sounded like Hamas had a training camp next door.”
That’s not a quote from US Special Forces in Iraq or Afghanistan.
That’s what Elbert County Sheriff William Frangis said
about Peaceful Valley Boy Scout camp’s shooting range.
Yes, you read that right: Sheriff Frangis compared a Boy Scout shooting
range to terrorists.
Peaceful Valley Boy Scout camp, as well as the western tradition of
recreational shooting,n is being attacked by a number
of anti-gun liberals, lead by Sheriff Frangis and former Elbert County
Commissioner John Dunn. Frangis is a known anti-gun
activist and has testified before the legislature time and again in
favor of gun control.
Frangis, Dunn and a small collection of screeching liberals want to
prevent the Boy Scouts from holding events at the
camp’s shooting range. 4-H shooting programs are certainly next.
They’re using the same, tired old arguments to try to shut down the
Boy Scouts shooting range, claiming lead contamination
and disruption of the environment as justification for their attack on
the Second Amendment.
It is vital that gun owners like you and me let Sheriff Frangis and the
Elbert County Commissioners know that attacks on
the Second Amendment will not go unnoticed.
Rocky Mountain Gun Owners is closely monitoring this situation, but
there is something you can do to help!
E-mail or call Sheriff Frangis and the Elbert County Commissioners and
tell them to stop their witch hunt against
recreational shooting and the Boy Scouts.
