Roberts: Rotten Gun Policy To Stay
Tamworth Selectman and New Hampshire State Representative John Roberts was asked tonight to follow up on his previous statement that the Selectmen would publicly review their unlawful and unethical threat to fire town employees who carry firearms for self defense on town property in October when Selectman Abugelis returned to the board. Tonight was the Selectmen’s last meeting for October, with Selectman Tom Abugelis at his third October Selectmen’s get-together in a row. Roberts responded that he really meant that the policy will be reviewed in October of 2010, thus making clear his intentions to side with inaction and against peaceful and responsible gun owners in town. Classy, John.
Update: Selectmen schedule November meeting to discuss, and use that meeting to put it off for another two weeks. When prodded by two members of the public to release their apparently secretive legal brief on their plan of attack with regard to the employee policy, Abugelis stated “maybe”, and Roberts said the board keeps all briefs that their taxpayer funded attorney writes away from public eyes. Roberts stated that he wants to put the issue behind him…er, next meeting.
