The County Property Loophole

Ok then: County administrator Melvin Booth is being investigated for selling guns to fellow employees while on county property. If the allegations are true, his actions could be in direct violation of the county’s ethics policy.

    I don’t get it. What’s unethical about selling guns? Did he over-charge them? Did he misrepresent the product?

    did you read the article…perhaps this section:

    We were told that employees of Shelby County government must get permission to sell fund-raising on county property and/or county time. This includes Girl Scout cookies, candy, wrapping paper, [and] Boy Scout popcorn … yet Mr. Booth brought guns to work to sell to county employees on county time. This is a violation of the mayor’s ethics policy as explained to us. It is also a violation of the Shelby County handbook

    It’s not about guns, its about transacting private commerce in your public workplace on the public’s time.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
