Gun Forum Moved to Glenview to Accommodate Crowd

The free public forum will focus on the issues of school shootings, gun laws and what should be done to prevent future massacres.

The New Trier Democrats will host a free public forum on gun control on Sunday at 2 p.m, entitled "Guns and Public Safety: Where We Stand After Sandy Hook."

The forum has been moved to the Glenview Police Station Auditorium, 2500 East Lake Avenue in Glenview, because organizers are prepping for “an anticipated larger audience,” according to an article in Wilmette Life. It was originally going to be held at the Wilmette Public Library.

The forum will focus on a variety of gun-related topics, including concealed carry laws, gun statistics, school shootings, gun registration and what's happening in Congress.
