    New National CCW Law?

    Morgan: Rep. John Hostettler of Indiana introduced HR990. This bill covered all CCW holders, not just LEO for national carry. I am not sure of the status. I will try to find out. His email is: [email protected] Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    New National CCW Law?

    I will say that I am one of the cops that will not be happy until national CCW is recognized for all citizens, not just LEO. I fought against HR218 as hard as i could. However, it is here whether we like it or not. My hope now is that those who said passing HR218 would help to later get a...

    Are cosmetic restrictions an infringement?

    Penforhire, I am not trying to get into a pissing contest over words. I think i know where you are coming from on this. I will just say that to me, the issue is black and white. IMO it is an infringement. I say that based on the arguements that I and others have made. I think that anyone...

    Are cosmetic restrictions an infringement?

    Posted by Penforhire: "I am sure a few LEO's will disagree that wearing a uniform is an automatic use of force. I know I disagree. That is parnoia." Well the courts disagree with you. That is why, as i said in my post, an officer presence is level one on the USE OF FORCE CONTINUUM. A use of...

    Are cosmetic restrictions an infringement?

    Penforhire, I would say it would be 50/50 at best if an LEO said anything about obscenities on a weapon. I see bumper stickers with obscenities on vehicles all the time and the police aren't going out of their way to put a stop to it. I walk through the mall and see teens, and others, with...

    Are cosmetic restrictions an infringement?

    Night Guy, How do you figure he was "sold out" as you put it. I even posted his original question here, as it was asked! I never mentioned his name or his store, so no one would know who he was. I do this in case there are those who would have some nasty opinions. By asking the question here...

    Registration: Does it Infringe Upon a Right?

    Stickjockey, I remember reading about a court case that came to that decision. It was a while back, so I don't remember all the details. I will post it if I can find it

    Are cosmetic restrictions an infringement?

    Thank you for all the replies. Some interesting points of view. This question was asked by a gun shop owner (he feels, oops, I mean thinks it is not an infringement) during another topic. I agree the AWB involves more than cosmetics, however the cosmetic aspect of the AWB was his focus for this...

    Are cosmetic restrictions an infringement?

    Thanks to all who have posted so far. Keep them coming. Please forgive the poor grammer in the original post.:( I was trying to quickly type the post in the few minutes I have after work while my wife was handing me our toddler as she was walking out to her job. Here is the question as it...

    Are cosmetic restrictions an infringement?

    Are comstic restrictions an infringement? My question is: Do you feel that a regulation that imposes cosmetic (the looks only, not the functioning) restrictions on firearms, such as those in the AWB, are an infringement on the 2nd Amendmant or just an inconvenience? Please explain why...

    Received my Ohio CHL today- positive and negative

    From Coronach: "Your objection is with the whole idea of permits, then, not anything to do with the rapidity with which they are issued." I was responding to Jackthelad's post when he said, "I hate to take it personally - but i did". From Coronach: "Rather than hijack the thread...

    Received my Ohio CHL today- positive and negative

    Quote from Coronach: "Then you may well have a point." You are missing the point. The fact that he even has to ask permission and go through all the hoops to be granted permission to exercise his rights is the point. You say "sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't" an intentional...

    Received my Ohio CHL today- positive and negative

    Quote: I mean its not like they have Smithers and Mr. Burns going "How shall we infringe the rights of the masses today?" Uh...well..actually they do. Maybe not Smithers and Burns. More like Clintons, Bushes, Feinsteins, Shumers and any number of lesser known sheriffs and police chiefs...

    Received my Ohio CHL today- positive and negative

    You should take it personally! And you should be mad as hell about it. First you are being forced to ask permission to exercise your RIGHTS. Then you are forced to jump through hoops before you are given permission to exercise your RIGHTS. Then, as a final kick in the teeth, the idiots that are...

    NYC Crime Stats - Is Concealed Carry Necessary?

    Graystar: Only if you have the permit. Otherwise, you are going to be arrested, even if it was a good shoot.

    A John Lott article run by Fox News

    CNN consistant and fair? LOL You better start checking the facts against what CNN is saying. You will find they don't always agree, especially when it comes to firearms. At best you will see a huge bias AGAINST guns, if not an outright lie. Remember the fiasco they showed with the lying piece...

    Anyone shoot/own guns but not hunt?

    I own and shoot firearms, well only one right now but I hope that changes soon. However, I do not hunt. I have nothing against hunting, and I have tried it, it's just not how I choose to spend my time. If the SHTF though, I would sure be gald to have a few experienced hunters on my side.
