Lack Of Judgment
LEBANON, Pa. (AP) - Officials in Pennsylvania have revoked a woman's concealed-weapons permit because other parents complained that she was carrying her loaded handgun at her daughter's soccer games. Meleanie Hain said she's fighting the revocation by the Lebanon County sheriff.
Hain lost the permit and got a warning from local soccer officials after a game on Sept. 11.
Sheriff Michael DeLeo says openly carrying a weapon to a youth soccer match shows a lack of judgment.
Hain tells the Lebanon Daily News she's always openly carried a firearm without any problems in the past.
And her lawyer - Robert Magee - says that while Pennsylvania requires a permit for a concealed firearm, it doesn't require a license to carry one openly except in Philadelphia.
Ok, let me see if I got this right...Lady carries a gun openly in public. Sheriff thinks that she shows a "lack of judgment" so he revokes her CCW. In Pennsylvania, open carry is not illegal but carrying concealed without a permit is illegal.
So, by revoking her CCW, the Sheriff just guaranteed that she has to carry openly in public because now concealing it would be a crime.
Who is showing a lack of judgment?

For those of you that do not habla, a woman acting well within the law was singled out and harassed by liberal do-gooders and as a result, the local liberal brownshirt sheriff sided in with them and illegally revoked her concealed carry license.

Last week the web was all a buzz with reports of how a Pennsylvania woman was harassed by a local liberal Sheriff and had her concealed carry license suspended illegally. This has been happening (not the suspension part, just the harassment part) in Ohio pretty regularly over the last few months.Today, The Cleveland Plain Dealer has a story of it happening again; this time to an Ohio resident by Cleveland police.Full Story Here.Greg Llewellyn, his girlfriend and four friends were sipping hot tea outside a West Side coffee shop on a recent August night when a pair of Cleveland police ...
From what I read on the forum this all came out of, the sheriff is like past retirement age.
