That's a wrap! Thanks for a great season. See you all next year!
We should be shooting 2nd Saturday and 4th Sunday again next year.
Final schedule to be finalized in February.

<div class="IPBDescription">Does Dorothy "The Hat" Tillman also carry?</div>Sent off a couple of e-mails and never expected to get a reply. But I did get a response and thought I'd share with the posse. Read from the bottom up (reverse order). <br />
<br />
I thought that my intent was clear, but obviously I'm a little obtuse. My <br />
intention was to be a "smart a$$".<br />
<br />
Thanks for the reply as I didn't expect to get one. I also have to admit <br />
that I had no idea that aldermen are considered to be peace officers and <br />
would be willing to bet any amount that my nineteen year old daughter can <br />
handle a weapon better than any of them, but she wouldn't be exempt.<br />

Well I would guarantee that your daughter is much better qualified to handle a firearm than the "Alderman". Probably more so than some that "serve and protect".<br />
<br />
<br />
I hope the alderman in question does posses an FOID, and can show where and how long she has possessed the firearm. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/pokey.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':pokey:' /> <br />
