We need to do more than just comment, since the statists seem to have a head start at the fed level, stalling in Congress seems to be one course of action, while State level nullification the other.

Comments, people?

Sorry but I gotta go and take care of things, it is Saturday, so I can`t baby sit this thread. Please feel free to run with it but PLEASE don`t degenerate into a pissing match.

Now you’re talking! We need a few comrades in arms to get us off the endless keyboarding and into the town square.

Here in Illinois we don’t have anyone pushing nullification (yet), but we do have a full court press going to get conceal carry:

Synopsis of HB0154:

Creates the Family and Personal Protection Act. Provides that the Department of State Police shall issue a license to carry a loaded or unloaded handgun to an applicant that meets specified qualifications, has provided the application and specified documentation, and has submitted the requisite fees. Provides that a license to carry a handgun entitles a licensee to carry a loaded handgun, either concealed or openly, on or about his or her person or in a vehicle, except in certain prohibited locations. Provides that the license shall be issued by the Department of State Police within 45 days of receipt from a sheriff and shall be valid throughout the State for a period of 5 years from the date of issuance. Provides for renewal of licenses. Establishes qualifications for licensees, certified firearms instructors, and instructor trainers. Provides for home rule preemption. Provides that the provisions of the Act are severable. Amends the Freedom of Information Act. Prohibits from inspection and copying information about applications for licenses to carry a handgun and about license holders contained in the database created by the Family and Personal Protection Act, except as authorized by that Act. Amends the State Finance Act and the Criminal Code of 2012 to make conforming changes. Effective immediately.

This is being put forward by Representative David Reis (R), 109th District, so we need folks to get behind this and make it know we will not settle for less than what is ours by right.

Showing support for the good, as in legislative efforts happening, beats sitting in the gloom scowling for the bad occuring.
We are not taking the field. We are physically invisible.
Congrats to FReepers gathering at state capitals at noon.

Here is a question you can ask the gun grabbers. If an AR 15 is an assault rifle why doesn’t any military in the world use it?

Mr. Robinson, if you would do me the honor of looking over the idea stated in this thread, your input would be appreciated.
