The gun control people are gearing up.
They are afraid of the dark and are making it known.

Re: The gun control people are gearing up.
Do they realize that CHL'ers are allowed to carry into the Senate Chambers??? Wouldn't that scare most of them away?

Re: The gun control people are gearing up.
I'd like to take every anti to the gun range and teach them to shoot.
....Seriously...
I'd bet the numbers of anti's would decrease by 50% over night.

I think several people said that during their testimony during the HB750 and SB354 hearing but I don't hear any of the antis run screaming from the room.uthornsfan wrote:Do they realize that CHL'ers are allowed to carry into the Senate Chambers??? Wouldn't that scare most of them away?

I believe the basic political division in this country is not between liberals and conservatives but between those who believe that they should have a say in the personal lives of strangers and those who do not.

Surprise, surprise...all of Snarky's comments which refuted points on their silly little event site were deleted.

Re: The gun control people are gearing up.
I hope they know signs are prohibited in the gallery.
And that they're making a media event out of a desk vote...they won't even hear them voting or know when the votes are being cast. This is comical.

Re: The gun control people are gearing up.
Snarky even replied asking John Woods if he would be carrying, since he had his CHL? That post, too, was deleted.
One thing, and I wish I had copied it when he replied to Snarky, is that he was aware that guns would be allowed in the Capitol, but the "median age" would be higher than on a college campus.
Snarky reminded him that the "median age" would be the same once professors, staff, and those over the age of 21 carried.
JohnBoy also insinuated he "felt safe" because there were cops every 100 feet. Snarky reminded him of the Castle Rock v. Gonzalez decision, and saying because police aren't every 100 ft. is one of the best reasons this legislation needs to pass.
I have NO idea why these were deleted.
