Hats off to David Lyman for his comments which hit the nail on the head. During the initial new stories on these, shell casings were reported found in Tri-Mountain Park. For those not familiar with firearms, shell casings are the part that "holds" the bullet until it's fired, and when a gun is fired, the shell casing normally falls to the ground nearby where the gun was actually fired. By finding shell casings in the park, it was already clear that there was illegal shooting going on that was not at all related to Blue Trail Range. Also, based on the type of bullet that was found in the most recent incident, if that type of ammunition were fired from Blue Trail Range, it is not reasonably possible for it to have struck the house... the caliber's ballistics do not support it.

It is clear that Durham's local goverment is taking a proactive role in making sure it's residents are safe from Wallingford's range. They are working with the state, Wallingford, and the range to make sure a tragedy does not occur. No fingers are being pointed, just information is being gathered and given to residents. Hats off to the Durham community for doing this the right way!

Hey, Butane, if you are tired of the stories about the gun range, why dont you just not read the articles and not post comments about them? Some of us are very concerned about all of this, and if you have nothing constructive to say on the matter one way or the other, just butt out.

Hats off to the Durham community for doing this the right way! When it is discovered that the bullets that have been hitting the houses in Durham have NOT originated from Blue Trail Range, I wonder who the Durham residents will go after next to ensure their safety? It sounds to me like finger pointing is exactly what you are doing in this post. Saying that you need to keep the residents safe from the Wallingford Range and working to prevent a tragedy before it occurs sure sounds like you are saying the Wallingford Range is NOT safe for the residents of the Tri-Mountain area. So, if the bullets are not coming from Blue Trail, as I strongly suspect they are NOT, don't think that means no tragedies will occur. Illegal shooters in the woods can be just as dangerous, if not more so, than a regulated gun range a mile away on the other side of the mountain.

butane you've made up for your original comment. This D'Natalie guy is worth millions, wants to develope the property and knows no one would by his homes that are right behind a range (oh, and did i mention over a mountain peak too?). Don't invest in property next to an airport if you don't want to hear planes all day, just like not building behind a range if you can't take the noise.
Man, gotta love the power of $$$$

I do hope that Kovner will spend as much ink writing about the criminal idiots who fired these bullets at close range at these homes as he did on accusing Blue Trails of being the culprit without any evidence except hearsay and innuendo, typical of his writings. The recent broadcast story that showed casings in Tr-Mountain and nearby the affected homes supports the theory that someone very close to the target homes fired rounds at their walls, which should be borne out by a professional forensic investigation. Oh, and a quick look at a Mapquest map will lead one to believe that the bullets DID NOT originate from Blue Trails. Simple geography proves this. Where are you, Sherlock Holmes, now that we need you?

If bullets are coming from the park, and not the range, then I think the residents should push to have the park sold to a developer (I'm sure there are some close at hand) to get rid of this dangerous area and make it into more neighborhoods.

Hats off to the Durham community for doing this the right way! What a crock. Fingers are being pointed left and right and everyone here knows it. Your arguments would be great if any of them were ever true. How many more aliases will you post under? Or do you think posting as 6 or 8 non-existent people will cver it? "Durham's local goverment is taking a proactive role in making sure it's residents are safe from Wallingford's range." Pointing fingers are we? Safe from Wallingford's range? That's not pointing a finger?

Right. Because even MORE houses even CLOSER to the range is EVEN SAFER.

Hats off to the Durham community for doing this the right way! Why don't you come right out and state that you are indeed Laura Francis. There is some major finger pointing going on here and I hope when the day comes that proves BTR is not at fault that you have a huge speech full of apologies written.

Hats off to the Durham community for doing this the right way! They're just a bunch of antigun hacks, all in DiNatalie's pocket. Francis and Kalinowski are his Town Committee buddies and the resident state trooper is probably in on it as well we need to do what we can to save blue trail so that these "officials" don't further trample on our rights!
