Richard,
Good letters and well done.
I recommend that we all use the facts presented in those letters to send to county/city council/police chiefs and sheriffs who are considering banning our carry park carry rights.

[quote="C. Richard Archie] We did provide them with good information, and support, but across the board, the success of our endeavor was due to the strong common sense nature of the Council members themselves.[/quote]
Would that common sense were not so uncommon a commodity!
Great job, Richard!
