Hwy...one big drawback in the future is...

The national reciprocal carry bills that have a chance exclude states like Vermont that allow permitless carry.

Wyoming might become a second state the the national carry exempts.

Shall issue started the same way. One State at a time.
The long term goal is to force the State governments to abide by the entire US Constitution.
Once they all do then permit reciprocity is a dead issue.

... no accountability.

No. The bill just keeps piling up until the peasents take to the streets with pitchforks and torches.

Hopefully, we can not let this get to that point... but things are looking pretty tense right now.

If it wasn't for the cold and the mosquitos, I'd seriously consider moving to Alaska.

This is the way God intended for man to be...

If you came by that gun legally it is your private property and you can do whatever you like with it as long as you do not harm to others or their property with it or use it to your own illegal or moral agrandizement...

God Bless WY and all those who yearn to breath free...

They always quote Police Chiefs, never Line officers.

Police Chiefs are politicians-and toe the company line

The freedom of the 2nd amendment is a threat to many public officials...

Those very same officials who took an oath to defend that very same constitution against ALL enemies ..foreign and domestic..

We have seen the enemy and he is us...

If free citizens are TOO SCARY for you Sheriffs and Chiefs y'all ought to get out of the line of work y'all are in and find something less stressful...

imo

Laramie is a 'college town' whose college drama dept dedicated a play to the late Mathew Shepherd...

There are no doubt many admirers of the Hollywood portrayal/betrayal of Wy folks in the ridiculous drama "Brokeback Mountain"...in Laramie who shudder at the thought of locals 'being allowed' to carry their legal owned weapons for self defense

But they are most likely not from Wy in the first place..just squatters from back east who unfortunately get to vote in WY elections....

imo

Deutsch said, "They could go out and buy a gun and strap it to their hip, and then if something comes up that would have prevented them from carrying a gun, we deal with it in reverse."

And the problem is?

You're not a criminal until you commit a crime.

This is Wyoming, any hint of gun restriction, no matter how tentative or small, will result in elected officials going down, period.

“I support the right to possess firearms, but I think the restrictions that go along with the permit system are not unreasonable,” Banks said.

So he committed perjury when he swore to uphold the constitution that says:

The right of citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves and of the state shall not be denied

--Wyoming Constitution, Article I, Section 24

Time for Banks to look for a new line of employment. I hear the BN railroad in WY is hiring.

The correct title should be:

Concealed gun bill worries police politicians and beaurocrats.

I don't know if it's perjury exactly, but he sure as hell isn't being faithful to the oath he took.
