A northeast Georgia county official will not re-submit a proposed firearms ordinance that would have prevented residents from firing a gun within 300 feet of a home. A recent meeting drew about 100 Madison County residents to protest the proposal. The county commissioner says he introduced the proposal after getting complaints of people firing guns close to their homes. Opponents backed by the National Rifle Association say the law violates the Second Amendment, and rights of property owners.
