In a case that has spurred a town-wide debate on the second amendment, the owner of an ammunition store in Lacey Township will not be permitted to sell firearms, the township’s Zoning Board of Adjustment has ruled.
William Malcolm, a retired captain of the Union County Sheriff’s Office, owns Jersey Sportsman on Route 9. He qualifies for a federal permit to sell firearms in his shop, however he cannot receive the permit until the municipal government confirmed zoning approval. The township’s zoning officer decided that gun sales were not a permitted use in the C-150 commercial zone, forcing Malcolm to seek a variance from the board. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To prohibit a citizen from wearing or carrying a war arm . . . is an unwarranted restriction upon the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of constitutional privilege. [Wilson v. State, 33 Ark. 557, at 560, 34 Am. Rep. 52, at 54 (1878)] |
