IV Defendants argue that the trial court erred in concluding that certain provisions of the ordinance are unconstitutionally vague.
Assuming, as the trial court did, that such a ban would be unreasonable, this section of the statute cannot be overbroad on the grounds that it prohibits the possession of handguns.
Paradoxically, the trial court concluded that this section is unconstitutional because "it precludes constitutionally protected conduct" in spite of the fact that earlier in its order, the court held that "the ordinance is narrowly tailored to serve the previously determined compelling governmental interest.

The majority's abstract reweighing of the trial evidence to determine whether the prosecutor's comments diminished the jury's ability to fairly consider the evidence allows it to conclude that there was no constitutional error, but unmentioned in its analysis is the reality that gays and lesbians are held in contempt by substantial numbers among us.

As stated earlier, the trial court admitted the evidence on two grounds: (1) because it tended to show the intent and guilty knowledge of the appellants and (2) because it was necessary to establish an element of several offenses which concerned the omission of material facts to potential and actual participants.

The appellant Frost contends that the trial court erroneously permitted one of the victims to testify concerning threats made to her by an individual named Bob Stanley, who was an officer of the corporation and a co-conspirator of the appellants.
