Gun Rights Win at Bethany Beach.

Going to the beach in Israel. At least there you can still smoke at the beach, and bring your gun of course.

A bike shop is in the process of changing ownership, the new owner has an FFL and wants to sell firearms. No problem, right? Not if you ask Bethany Beach officials, who only relented after looking at Delaware law.

Bethany Beach officials cannot keep Bethany Cycle and Fitness from selling and transferring firearms.

Local resident Carol Brigleb voiced concerns more than a year ago about the practice and the council began examining the law after the bike shop was in the process of changing ownership.

However, Delaware state law prohibits municipalities from restricting ownership, transfer or possession of firearms.

Mayor Tony McClenny told the Wilmington News Journal that the town will not be pursuing any change.

Alton Jones who owns the bike shop acquired a federal firearms license for the store on eight years ago.

But local resident Brigleb told the paper that there were more appropriate places to sell guns in Sussex County and that it did not fit the image of Bethany Beach as a family town with retirees.

 

I’m glad the Mayor came to his senses, as for Brigleb, who the hell are you to decide where we can sell guns? And why would you assume retirees don’t want to buy guns? Lots of retirees already do, and plenty have shot burglars and other dangerous criminals.

Brigleb sounds like the typical Obama-lover, they have no respect for the individual, it’s always about what the “community” wants or needs.
