Round three of the debate concerning Baldwin becoming a Second Amendment sanctuary headlined the Village Board’s monthly meeting Aug. 11.
“I’ve gotten more phone calls, texts or emails on this issue than any other,” said trustee Austin Van Someren. “A lot for and a lot against.”
Village residents who spoke questioned the why?
“Your primary focus should be on municipal issues, not political manifestation movements,” said Ellen Olson, addressing the Board.
Said former President Willy Zevenbergen: “I’m not here for or against it, but this is a political quagmire. It’s not a position a Board should take action on.” |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
