I dont know how much longer we should continue to be silent regarding these ill mannered extremists.
This must be the season for limb-climbing for me so I'll go out on another one. I believe we would have had at least a 50/50 chance of passing unlicensed open-carry in 2017, if licensed open-carry were to pass this session, were it not for counterproductive tactics. Two years of people getting used to seeing others carrying handguns and being normal, responsible citizens would have gone a long way toward easing fears. Unfortunately, the vivid pictures in the minds of the general public are not of "normal, responsible citizens." There is no estimation how far back unlicensed open-carry has been set and it will get worse when HB195/SB342 go down in flames.

Chas.
Any chance of hb164 getting to a floor vote before they realize that their pet bills are dead?
