I know all the arguments for and against. I just want to weigh in: As a 100% pro gun person, if and when this bill comes up for a vote, I will be repeatedly contacting my local legislators, and many out of state legislators, to demand that they vote NO on this bill. I'm now old enough, and wise enough, to be able to peer, even if only dimly, at the future; yet I can see remarkably clearly that Fed involvement in the area CCW is the worst possible idea, from gun rights advocates, to have come along in a generation.
I've been fighting for CCW rights for over 10 years and cannot believe that some are now willing to take such a large risk which could very lead to the eventual destruction of all of our hard work, overnight. I'm dismayed at the folks in the leftist states, once again, trying to use the fed to accomplish what they cannot at home. Left staters always have the option of moving to a free state. Rest assured that purely selfish concerns about their high paying jobs, girlfriends, etc., are what is driving them to try to impose their will, once again, upon the free states, via the fed. It is *that mentality* that makes us red staters so angry with the blue staters, *regardless* of the issue.
