But on Wednesday he said the management company that operates Park Place Apartments, where he lives, told him the complex’s rules prohibit firearms.
“I have to give my gun up,” Lembo said. “I don’t see how they can do it, but I suppose they can.”
Russ Gagne, director of finance for Stanford Management, which manages Park Place Apartments and about 1,500 other subsidized apartments in Maine, said the complex doesn’t allow firearms.
“We have house rules that prohibit firearms on the property,” he said. “It’s in the lease. … It’s really for the safety of all the tenants.” Gagne said the company handles lease infractions on a case-by-case basis and that it has just started its investigation into the incident in Lembo’s apartment. |

| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
