Pennsylvania: Borough of West Mifflin to Consider “Lost or Stolen” Ordinance
 
by The NRA

December 10, 2009


Please Stand Up and Make Your Voice Heard!

On Tuesday, December 15 at 6:30 p.m., the Borough Council of West Mifflin will consider a proposal that would require gun-owners to report lost or stolen firearms within a 72-hour period or face fines and possible imprisonment.

This law would not only violate Pennsylvania’s state preemption laws, but would also turn law-abiding gun owners, who have already been victimized by theft, into criminals.

The meeting will be held on the second floor of the West Mifflin Municipal Building located at 3000 Lebanon Church Road in West Mifflin.  If you’re planning on testifying, please contact the Borough Office at 412-466-8170.

Please contact the members of the Borough Council of West Mifflin TODAY and respectfully urge them to oppose this unwarranted, unjust and illegal ordinance.  Contact information can be found below.  If you are able, please attend this meeting to show your support for the Second Amendment and, if possible, speak against this ill-conceived proposal.

If it was lost and you didn't know it, how would you report it?

Better yet, how would they know the 72 hours was up?



Just more stupid "nanny state" laws!
The sole purpose of government is to protect your liberty. The Constitution is not to restrict the people, but to restrict government.  Ron Paul

The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first. - Thomas Jefferson
