Second Amendment forum tomorrow night

Tuesday night's planned forum on the second amendment is getting a lot of press today in The Daily Herald, especially with those who fully support the right to bear arms.


The event was planned following an April forum that was about gun control. Pro-second amendment folks packed the room but weren't allowed to speak. In fact, they were threatened with forcible expulsion by the police if they got out of hand. But tomorrow night it's their turn to take center stage at Wheaton Town Hall. The organizers say this event was set up to make sure both sides of the argument about firearms can be heard. If those citizens who support gun control show up, will the organizers of this event allow them to be heard? That was the complaint last month. Let's hope so. It's far better when people are given the chance to share their views and concerns in an orderly manner rather than it become a shouting match.

The forum will be at Wheaton Town Hall beginning at 6 tomorrow night.
