People are packing in Raymore, but it's not Christmas gifts. Yesterday, the Raymore (MO) city council voted 5-3 to allow council members to carry concealed weapons during meetings. The loosening of the gun laws also allows residents to carry guns into parks and city-owned buildings. The exception will be City Hall during council meetings when only the council can be armed.
Council Jeff Cox, an attorney, pushed the changes to be more in line with Missouri's concealed-carry law.
In 2008, five people in Kirkwood City, MO were killed during a city council meeting, including two councilmembers.
Ozark also just passed this.
