GoUtah! Alert HB 473 as passed by the House with floor amendment 1 To add my own points to it, Floor Amendment 2, which would have reduced the effects of the bill somewhat (at least on paper) did not pass. To explain, Open Carry has always been legal in Utah with a Concealed Firearms...

After recent events in Washington State, I have decided that that I'm sick and tired of the malls that continually ban guns from their property. Malls in a lot of ways are special in a sense of property ownership, and almost hostage-taking in a sense. Even if a tenant wanted to allow carry...

Pride Northwest Ejects Gay Man for Lawful Open Carry I'm sorry if I'm a little late on this posting, but considering I've been busy with work it's been sort of a slide situation.

LB695 This would remove the ability of cities to regulate concealed carry against Concealed Handgun Permit Holders, and Section 5 of the bill would further preempt all laws regarding possession of firearms. Omaha's registration and licensing system would go away if this bill were to become law.

I am pleased to announce that the Federal Way Police Department, via a training bulletin to all of it's officers, now recognizes peacible open carry as legal. Federal Way Police Department was notorious for it's officers arresting people for open carry. Approximately 2 months ago, I sent an...

Dear all, I wanted to impart a bit of good news. I was just contacted by the law firm for Community Transit (Snohomish County's transit agency). They have answered in the affirmative that Washington State law preempts Community Transit from enforcing such rules, and they are in contact...

Folks, I had a rather disturbing read over at packing.org in regards to Delaware County's LTCF issuance issues. It would appear that with the reference check, the deputy who's in charge of LTCF issuance outed the applicant as a LTCF applicant, which may result in the applicant losing his job or...

Philadelphia Gay man who was attacked and stabbed attacker in self defense freed by judge Needless to say I intend to see if I can find a way to get a hold of Mr. Dawson and urge him to buy a handgun and get a carry permit pronto. I find it rather bad that a lot in the gay community...

My partner and I went to the local gun store, and we were scoping out several handguns. At least we settled on a Kel-Tec P11, but as we felt it we felt the design was a little iffy for the cost. This being said, this firearm is for concealed carry. As a result, my partner got interested...

There's a bunch of people considering running for President in 2008. One of them is Mitt Romney. Well, here's a little something from 365Gay.com Funny thing is, he stabbed gun owners in the back and he's presented himself as anti-gun in Massachusetts. This goes to show that just because...

I looked at some of the returns from the elections in Kansas. The State House of Representatives appearently gained 3 Republican seats, now 83, over 80 before the year started. Of course, the veto override of Sebelius' veto failed by 78 (needed 84 to override), so the question to all the...

Sorry for the exclaimative subject, but I found a perfect way of driving home the point of why a person should carry, more specifically, GLBT (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgendered) people. The season premiere of Queer as Folk, one of Showtime's original series. Well, the episode had a...

Dear All, I need help to find out information on the Sullivan Act, specifically the reasons behind it, the Tammany Hall involvement, Tim Sullivan himself. I think Jim March himself had a really good write up on it, but I can't seem to find it. Any clues?

Allentown Morning Call I'm already considering sending a letter to Mr. Gordon telling him not to plead out. A cursory reading of the PA Crimes Code under disturbing the peace would say that he's not guilty of anything. MVPel, any thoughts on this?

Salt Lake Tribune on Vermont Style CCW I personally think they should just do it Alaska style rather than Vermont style. I can already see a trade off on getting Alaska style is to prohibit schools and universities from carriers. But I'm hoping at least they'll exempt that prohibition for...

VCDL Posting on Packing.org My commentary: This dolt is a real jackass that should be removed from office.

NH House Committee Rejects Eliminating Permit Requirement Pay attention to this one folks: Does anyone in NH, VT, or someone who knows VT politics know what Rep. Bemis is talking about? Is there something brewing up there? Vermont was the originator in lack of regulation of carry...
