There was a concealed weapons class held in Manning this weekend. Numbers were close to 50 that took it. Law abiding citizens are arming themselves, protecting themselves legally. Numbers are increasing. Packing- it’s a good thing!

I’ve had a concealed carry permit since 2003 and highly recommend it. There were places I used to go where I didn’t feel entirely comfortable; that changed once I got my CCL.
