Gun ban starts Sunday
By Erwin Ambo S. Delilan

"THE ban on the carrying of licensed firearms in public places will start this Sunday.

PNP Chief Oscar Calderon reminded the public that the PNP will suspend all the gun carrying privileges when the nationwide 150-day gun ban takes effect on January 14, the start of the election period for the May 14 national and local elections.

Calderon said the validity of the Permit to Carry Firearms Outside of Residence (PTCFOR) will be suspended from January 14 to June 13.

"This measure sees to it that only those authorized by law will be allowed to carry guns during the election period," he added.

The implementation of the gun ban is contained in En Banc Resolution 7764 issued by the Commission on Elections (Comelec) that regulates the transport of firearms and explosives, employment of bodyguards, and bearing of firearms by security forces."

And the, LMAO, Ads by Google are all featuring gun paraphernalia.

Cannot make this stuff up.
