The bill has overwhelming support in the legislature. Will Governor Bentley sign it?

I recall reading a few months ago that many Sherrifs’ were opposed to the ‘Shall issue’ provision.

So it may depends on how much sway they hold over Bentley.

If he doesn’t, fire the RINO.

"... Allows transportation of a handgun in a vehicle without an Alabama pistol permit as long as the handgun is unloaded, locked in a container and out of reach of the driver or passenger."

Interesting. Before this bill (presumably) becomes law, you needed to have an 'Alabama pistol permit' to transport a pistol within a vehicle without it being locked up. Now with the new law, those without said permit are allowed to do so as long as it's unloaded and locked up?

I don't even think California has a vehicle transport law that strict as it stands right now.

I must not be comprehending this correctly.
