"Sent you an email to stop the ban."
"please work with the local club on this issue"
"the ban is grossly unfair , the public was not allowed any "input" on this matter which effects rules on "their" public parks and their use of it."
"isnt this PUBLIC PROPERTY?"
"going to start a blog to get tourist to ban your city"
"I wont be traveling to Louisville any time soon!"
"Dogs do far more damage than these people ever do. I won't plan any visits to your city any time soon. :("
"With a dog leash law, those who dont follow the law by keeping their dog on a leash are subject to a citation, but all dogs arent banned. With metal detecting, there is a code of ethics, and only those who dont follow it should be punished."
"please reconsider your position on the ban of metal detectors in your lovely city"
"typical government tactic without much thought given to it."
"A former proud kentuckian, but this ban makes me not want to come back to the state."
"Mayor Abramson, Can Louisville really afford to lose tourism dollars?"
"Maybe you would like to see some of the dangerous items that are cleaned out of parks and play areas by metal detecting"
"The condition the parks have been allowed to degrade to in the past 20 or so years ie: Iroquois is a disgrace. Frederic Olmestead would role over in his grave. how could metal detecting possibly hurt them."
"Responsible metal detector hunters allways leave an area in better condition when they leave, than it was when they arrived."
"What a bunch of crap, just another way local government trying to beat down the people.!!!"
"I WAS planning a visit to the Louisville with our Cystinosis support group,but in light of this new law,we will be finding a new city"
