First: I don't see any other post on this so I hope this is not a repost. Second: I am sorry I don't have more info but here is what I was able to get on it...
I just got back from a townhall meeting over at Smokey Hill Library in Aurora. Todd, Carroll, Ryden and Buchner were in attendance. In the brief time they took questions one guy asked about the "voter reform bill". This is apparently confidential, some of it leaked out and this guy was asking about it. There is no offcial information because they have not put it out to the public yet. Senator Carroll knew about it and stated that it made registration open even to the day polls open, made it harder to put a voter on the "inelegable" list and was trying to get a more populous vote among other things.
This sounds to me like they know we are going to be out in force in 2014 and they are rigging the game? Thoughts?
I also talked to Todd on her bill "SHORT TITLE: "Limits On Firearm Possession"" of which there is another thread. I post it here since it was part of the same town hall. The link can be found here http://www.nraila.org/media/11159010/mental_health_bill.pdf
Here is the juicy part: (Notice the last two sentences)
"A person licensed to practice medicine in this state; a psychologist certified to practice in this state; certain professional nurses; certain licensed marriage and family therapists, licensed professional counselors, or licensed addiction counselors; or a licensed clinical social worker may request the bureau to enter information concerning another person into the national instant criminal background check system if the requesting person believes the other person poses a significant risk of causing serious physical harm to himself or herself or others. A person who is the basis of such a request is prohibited from possessing or purchasing a firearm for one year. The person may petition a court of law for an order reversing such prohibition."
Sooooo anybody with a certificate in mental health just has to request that your name be put on the "mental" list and .... They can take your guns. This dove tails nicely with the register your guns background check bill already coming July 1st. Then you get to pay a lawyer to stop them from melting down down guns in the mean time. Gotta love'em they are consistent in coming at us all crab like. Not a straight on hit... More a pincer move from the side. To be fair, Todd did say that was never supposed to get out and she would not support it like this. She just wants to get the board together now in preperation for next years list of bills. Notice that the board are mostly against guns. I wonder what that list o' bills for 2014 is going to look like?
