Lessons cost money. Good ones cost lots. -Tony Beets
There has been a lot of committee work in the afternoons so they keep postponing it, knowing it is going to be a looooong debate.
I feel like the storage law won?t with the ?sensitive places? CCW restrictions were to go hand-in-hand. If you can?t carry in places and then have to leave it in your car- they are then making it so that you need a lock box set up in your car. So, just another PITA to make gun ownership more onerous.
I mean, dont raise the penalty for stealing a gun out of a car, but make new criminals?

It is a civil offense, not criminal, but your argument is exactly what they were saying on the House floor during the debate.
Didn't matter, it passed anyway.
The anti-gun lobby has deep pockets so if you are a Democrat that wants to make a career of politics, they are a good friend to have. Voting for bullshit like this looks great on your resum? when it come re-election time.
The 1st C in CCW is there for a reason. How do they stop CCW inside post offices, national park buildings, and many other prohibited places. An almighty sign with a stern warning?
If proper security is absent, weapons bans are ineffective and thus null. Criminals with ill intent don't observe signs banning guns and don't care how sensitive those places are.
I think this is a ‘feature’ of modern gun control, not a ‘bug’. They pass laws that cost them very little, but are basically ‘death sentences’ for law abiding people. They don’t care that if the law is enforced, they don’t care if you abide. The fact that if you run afoul of their law that you’ll end up in court, get a fine, go to prison, and lose your gun rifghts is the threat to make it so that people give up on owning guns. They aren’t about solving problems, unless you realize that they see US as the problem. And when they do catch you, at the odd chance you win in court, they’lll just keep your guns.

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'
That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
