Re: Gun Bill Saturday - May 4th

Basically if im out in public and I reach up and scratch my head and my shirt tail rises above my gun handle then I've still committed a crime. Anyone care to explain a scenario that shows how 299 is an improvement??
If I'm understanding the rules, it's better from the perspective that it had already passed teh Senate so voting on it is a done deal, other than the Governors signature. No need for the Senate to vote on the HB or any kind of reconciliation committee.

I also like the additional verbiage of "in a public place". Not sure it really matters but the more limit on when the exposure is a crime, the better.

Re: Gun Bill Saturday - May 4th

I know we have an option to email our representatives from their websites. Does using the email facility on the representative's site carry the same weight as a phone call, letter or fax?
