Nevada, Assembly Bill 21

Dear Esteemed Members,

It has come to my attention that an Assembly Bill, AB-21, whose
passage would effectively double the cost of a weapons carry
permit in Nevada, is being entertained in the Judiciary Committee.

Please know that I oppose this targeted and punitive effort to
deny access to the carry of defensive arms to persons of limited
means.

The very people who most need access to personal protection, to
wit: the elderly (who are very often on a fixed income), single
parents (whose income is often limited and already stretched),
and young women (who are often the target of assault) would, with
the passage of this bill, find themselves hard pressed to afford
the combined training and fees.

Those persons of limited means already have a steep climb to
obtain the means of self defense, in that a decent sidearm is
quite often a major expense. By stacking further expense onto
this already burdensome cost, many who would benefit from the
protection of a personally carried weapon, and whose ability to
afford this is already marginal, will find themselves unable to
overcome this new threshold.

The text of this message is being copied for submission to various
media in an effort to raise awareness of this encroachment of
individual rights.

Please reject this proposed legislation and hold the line on
further incursions into the rights of Nevada's citizens.

Thank you.
