A county supervisor named Paul Johnson introduced a resolution to post no-guns signs at the court house and other county buildings. And he sure wanted you to know he is passionate about this.
"I will err on the side of going overboard as opposed to not going far enough," he told the board.
This sublime logic of Johnson's statement was lost on the other four supers, and his measure died for lack of a second.
I think more than one of his constituents grins at image of Supervisor Johnson madly treading water next to his row boat and screaming (passionately, of course) that he was only trying to do good.
It helped that County Sheriff Greg Baloun calmly reported to the board the ban would be unenforceable short of setting up a TSA-style security gate at every door.
