WHITE PLAINS – Westchester County lawmakers passed a law Monday that bans gun shows on county-owned property, ending a lengthy debate that centered on the Westchester County Center.

The ban, which passed in a 12-5 vote, doesn’t apply to gun shows on properties that the county doesn't own. None of the five Republican county legislators voted for the ban.

Legislator Catherine Borgia, an Ossining Democrat, said the ban came out of the thought that county government shouldn't profit from the sale of firearms. She said the law wasn't about contesting legal gun ownership.

Catherine Borgia, then you all shouldn't profit from any use of the Taxpayer funded so called county owned land .. seams you get a pay check working on county owned land .. you should work for free then ..

government shouldn't profit from the sale of firearms.

Bet she has no issue collecting the sales tax from gun sales.

It's all a matter of values.

Perhaps the county also shouldn't profit from the sale of other legal products like alcohol, cigarettes, adult magazines, R-rated movies, prescription narcotics, sugar, and gasoline.

Legislator Borgia, your values are not American values.
