Living in this "Commonwealth" for almost 30 years, I seem to recall that this "Commonwealth" was ruled by Democrats? This puzzles me, as "Pro Gun" as P.A. seems to be, why would they allow Democrats to run the whole show for as long as they have?
This last Presidential election saw a land slide swing in voters who were lifer Democrats, switch their party registration, to "legally" vote for the current President we have now. Mind boggling!! But then again, this why we lost our Industries that we had over the past 50+ years.
Steel is gone, coal has basically dried up, all they want is "Tourism". Here in Tioga County, Harley Davidson tried to move to Wellsboro not too long ago. The town fathers threw that out like a pitcher throwing a fast ball!! This "Commonwealth" defecated in its own bowl of oatmeal, many years ago and I do honestly think they are regretting it now.
I honestly hope and pray that our Democrat Governor we have now, gets voted out in favor of a Republican or Independent candidate. We, as constituents of P.A. can legally own all the semi automatic firearms we want, but, we cannot hunt with them for big game??
This to me seems archaic!! Many states in the South and out West can and allow the use of semi automatic rifles and pistols to hunt with, why does it take P.A. so long to get on the proverbial "bandwagon"? I know, because it is still a danged old "Commonwealth"!!
We don't get Federal funding like N.Y.S., and N.J., and Ohio. Time for P.A. to "man up" and get with the 21st Century and recognize!!
