We have our ccw privacy protected by statute here in Florida because of a couple of papers pulling this crap in 2005. If a bill popped up to make it public again, I would be writing my state legislators and state senators as well as the Gov about it and carrying my soap box around.
SaddlebagPreacher, As a private citizen, this has been my experience regarding Sheriff's offices vs. city police agencies. There have been some exceptions of course.
It really depends on the L.E.O. I know quite a few that encourage ccw Licenses and some that even teach classes when they are off duty. I had a deputy U.S. marshal tell me to carry as often as possible a couple of years ago. On the flip side there are some and certain jurisdictions that it...
The 9th Amendment is why I don't buy the line from police that a DL or owning a car is a privilege granted by them. I would really like to see some trooper tell George Washington, John Hancock or even better, Andy Jackson that riding their horses was a privilege granted by the Governor.
I have seen it come up once in a while. There was movie based on it, although the took some liberties with some of the facts. I think the ban nuts don't like to bring it up because it doesn't fit there talking points.
They don't bring up Pearl High School (Mississippi 1997) either because...
I don't know how the laws regarding armed security guards are in NY, but in FL, they are limited to a couple of models of 9mm pistols and 1 model of revolver in .357 mag. They also aren't supposed to use it in extremes cases such as they have just been killed.
People don't generally get 10 to 20 years in jail for speeding and forfeit most of the rights in the process. Therefore, if there is a requirement for private sales to go through a FFL, it will be a big deal if someone screws up and sells to a C.I. or undercover ATF agent etc., or gets ratted...
The gun ban wing nuts lead by Feinstein can try for the whole enchilada, but if they end up with a compromise, it is a win for them. That is even if it is high cap mags (what ever that is). However, they have tipped their hands once again. Just like in the 80s. They really are after bans and...
What about a .44 mag revolver with a 7/5" barrel and 240 jhp or sp at 20 yards? or 15 Yards? Maybe this needs compared to M.A.S.H. data. That said, when some thug kicks my door in at 3 am, and endanger my family or m, I intend to inflict as much damage as needed to stop them, however many of...
Cuomo has been talking about confiscation, permits to by ammo is being proposed in Ca and a ban on everything is being attempted in Illinois as I type this. Let us not forget about D. Fenstein and her marvelous piece of legislation she promised to introduce this week.
Regardless if this thing hits the Gov. desk late Friday or early Monday morning, people need to get active to stop this. Maybe the did hit the panic button, but 2 days is a lot different than 2 weeks or 2 months.
Edit: It looks to me that you guys may have concealed carry licenses up there by...
Well Spengler was a convicted felon that served 17 years for beating his grandmother's brains out with a hammer. We saw the outcome of that. What about Charles Manson should he get paroled? (That last one is rhetorical since it isn't likely, but there are less famous guys that do get released...
