Did anyone see the six o;clock WKYT news tonight? They did an article about guns in the capitol that was very unfair to open carry in general. Made no mention of the Constitutional right. Said that the governor was in a meeting with senate leaders after a man had walked in with a holstered gun.

I was looking for the article on their website so I can send them a mail about unbiased or at least accurate reporting, not that there is such a thing anymore.

No, I looked on the site and couldn;t find it. It was a piece on the nightly news about banning guns from the capitol.

Thanx! Funny how they think that their so called security trumps our rights. Leave it to the liberals to make a mountain out of a mole hill. I'm quite certain the OCer in question is not the first person to carry at the capitol.

From what I understand from other news sources, a trooper spied someone wearing a holster in the House chambers. They questioned the guy and the guy was perturbed that he was being questioned and detained. He eventually revealed to them an empty holster.

It really would be nice for a "news source" to reveal all the facts with limited bias.
