Huntley Area Tea Party hosts forum on gun rights

Submitted by Huntley Area Tea Party

The Huntley Area Tea Party will present a public forum on Tuesday, Sept. 27 on the subject of the Second Amendment and the right of citizens to conceal carry. It will be at 6:30 p.m. in the Willow Room at the Cosman Cultural Center, 12015 Mill St. in Huntley.

The featured panel members will be: state Rep. Mike Tryon, co-sponsor of the bill to enable conceal carry in Illinois; a representative from the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence; and a representative from the Illinois State Rifle Association.

Each panel member will present their views on these issues along with specific reasons and facts supporting their views. The panel will then take questions from the audience.

By presenting both sides of this controversial issue, they hope to provide the public with factual information and stimulate meaningful and respectful discussion.
