National CCW reciprocity bill clears House panel

[ChunkyMonkey]

Why would they be against it?


Also, link is fixed

I am against anything that transfer power from the State to the Federal govt. This law will allow the fed to ban someone from carrying nationwide, will it not?

I can agree with you.

Then they should treat it like drivers license. Making it legal to CCW in any state
that have permits etc. The feds dont control the DL and who can and cant have one do they? (serious question not being sarcastic)

Good question and point.

There's one thing on this link that I think covers that, but I'm not sure

Myth: H.R. 822 would involve the federal bureaucracy in setting standards for carry permits, resulting in "need" requirements, higher fees, waiting periods, national gun owner registration, or worse.

FACT: H.R. 822 doesn't require -- or even authorize -- any such action by any federal agency. In fact, since it would amend the Gun Control Act, it would fall under a limitation within that law that authorizes "only such rules and regulations as are necessary to carry out" the GCA's provisions. No federal rules or regulations would be needed to implement H.R. 822, which simply overrides certain state laws.

Me too.

This is just another violation of the 2nd amendment in a different way. We shouldn't need any 'crat to declare us eligible for concealed carry, open carry, NFA. All we need are the locals to vet us for felonies.

Yeah, I agree. We shouldn't need it but the sad fact is we do. Just like we shouldn't need to fight for our 2nd amendment rights but if we don't, who will?
