Today, July 1, Senate Bill 229 goes into effect. As previously reported, SB 229 protects law-abiding gun owners from becoming unintentional felons by allowing legally possessed firearms to be locked in a vehicle, out of plain sight, while parked on school property. SB 229 also prohibits the use of taxpayer dollars for gun “buybacks” and removes the misguided “roaming school zone” language set to return on the books today. Senate Bill 229 was signed into law by Governor Mike Pence (R) on March 26.
Is it just me, or do those pieces of legislation which trample our rights take effect immediately, while those which bind government take months or even years to go into effect?
I believe that a subtle, slow, determined, responsible, and thoughtful campaign will ultimately lead us to where we want to be on this issue. Little victories will add up in time. they already are in fact.

It is just you.
