An attempt to ban concealed carry permit holders form bringing weapons into Lubbock City Council meetings has failed.
The council turned down the proposal 5-2.
Linda DeLeon and Floyd Price were the only two council members to support the ordinance.
DeLeon said she does not feel comfortable with people other than peace officers carrying weapons during government meetings because emotions can flare up during debate..
