Neighbors don’t like that Glock is expanding. The world needs more Glock.

    So, I guess they won’t mind when Glock moves their entire production to a state that has citizens that WANT jobs?

    My home of Montana would love to have them arrive next year, I think.

  2. Blake Says:

    They are more than welcome in Tennessee.

    Smyrna Mayor Max Bacon said.
    “But anytime you have someone who manufactures guns, there will be some concern.”

    Guns without ammo are sticks.

  4. Dave Says:

    UT has space for the factory.

  5. Henry Says:

    Hey Glock: Come on down!

  6. Gunner M. Says:

    Smyrna Georgia…not Smyrna Tennessee.

    Having gone through a zoning fight here in Texas with some neighbors of our subdivision just a few years ago, allow me to make a prediction. The city council will allow Glock to do whatever the heck it wants, regarding buildings, business expansion, and increases in traffic or employees. The council will moderate the effect on the neighbors by demanding either stricter than normal construction rules and/or stricter than normal screening of the property, by landscaping or fencing. And the neighbors who are complaining will feel a little better that they got a few more trees between them and the new building, or a water runoff retention pond to keep sediment out of the stream, or some such.

    Who pays more taxes locally, Glock or a handful of residential malcontents?

    If I were Gaston, I’d leave the woods alone, buy out the whiny neighbors, demolish their houses, and build there.

  9. Blake Says:

    More than welcome to move to Tennessee (for those that know there’s a Smyrna, TN)

  10. Snowdog Says:

    Well we’ve got a bunch of now vacant land here in St Louis that used to be a Chrysler mini van factory, they’re more than welcome here.

  11. JD Says:

    HEy Glock, come on up to ND we love guns here.

    Mikee’s right: zoning sucks. In the end, the woods will still be gone, the homeowners will still feel they’ve lost something, and the company will be out a bunch of money. Chaz Bono’s kid sister, Cooey.

    The Snowdog’s got the point: new factories wouldn’t have to be chopping down forests and plowing up perfectly good beanfields, if we-the-people hadn’t used the power of government to make it expensive and legally dangerous to use existing industrial tracts. But we thought that was what we wanted, and it seemed like such a good idea at the time. And having acted, we can’t undo it. Duh.

    because smyrna is such a beautiful jewel of a town. it’s a suburb of mexico city.

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