DC Delegate tells voters to Pipe Down - DC Gun Ban
District of Columbia Delegate Eleanor Holmes orders a crowd of those against the unconstitutional DC Gun Ban to "pipe down!" Word to the wise for any person in public office -- it is not a good idea to tell the people who you serve to keep quiet -- remember you work for the people, not the other way around. Delegate Holmes there is good reason why the people of the District of Columbia oppose the unconstitutional ban you support-- it has stolen the rights of the people you swore to represent!!
