How is gun control working for them now and how will it in the future? Answer: IT AIN'T! Only a fool thinks it does or will!but it won't happen. Every LEO I know personally just wants to go home alive at the end of the day, and if that means increasing gun control while exempting themselves, then so be it.
Exactly!When was the last time a person who shot a cop with a gun had followed gun control laws? Just asking. For a dead friend. For reasons.
This sucks. I can’t take 3 days off in as many weeks.Register here to testify in person or remote:

Younger people also have to deal with that pesky job thing.Since threads constantly getting locked... I most of people at the rally were senior citizens. Somebody took insult to that and assumed that was a dig. I'm pointing that out as someone who obviously also supports gun ownership.
I'm saying that out of concern since there is a glaring lack of young people who are interested in gun rights in this state. We need to change that. If we do not get more young people into guns and the like, it's going to be a problem for obvious reasons.
They won't complain about it causing more work for them on licensing procedures. They'll just smirk and say, "That's why it now takes us at least a year to process your unconstitutional permit."I can pretty much guarantee that if there are LEO exemptions in the new one then they will give this one the big silent treatment. The only thing I could see them complaining about are any new provisions that cause them more work on licensing procedures, and even then I doubt they’ll complain if it doesn’t affect their officers. That was his big mistake the first time around, no exemptions for LEO. It was a moronic move.
Yes. The AWB definition is worse than any other state as currently written. All commonly used semi-auto rifles become illegal.
True but it's simply my opinion that the lack of younger people was shocking. And since people here are insatiably sensitive, I have to say again that I appreciate everybody's efforts regardless of age but we need to get more young people interested in gun ownershipYounger people also have to deal with that pesky job thing.
...like a 10/22
Almost. I think the AR-7 and the M1 are safe. That might be it.

... or made so many law-abiding people into instant felons?Emailed my rep who is not on either of the committees and asked what other sweeping reform legislation had a hearing within 5 days.
Too late 4 that now,i said this before and am saying this again:" most young people dont get into gun because it too hard to get into ,and even if they can pay to get their ltc there will be no place for them too shoot, most gunclubs are membership only,after u pay" ,not open to the public even if they willing to pay a bit just so they can pop off a few shots to zero their gun.True but it's simply my opinion that the lack of younger people was shocking.

The bastards dropped the bill and leave one business day before scheduling a hearing.I got this email from my State Rep Denise Garlick this afternoon. I am putting togehter a response protesting that the hearing is being scheduled less than a week after filing.
