In reply to questions about exposing pupils to a firearms outlet, or about criminals and straw buyers being drawn to the store, Fendry offered a synopsis of state gun laws and rights of gun shop owners.

"If you are opposed to gun shops you are not going to like the facts," Fendry told the audience.

City officials have said the gun shop is a permitted zoning use, and an occupancy permit for the business was issued in August.

The Common Council will hold a public hearing Tuesday to discuss possible changes in zoning rules that would outlaw future gun shops in similar districts.

I don't get why people are so up in arms about this shop being across the street from a school.
