Our Dimowit Governor has vetoed CC TWICE now for Wisconsin. We're planning on showing him the door come November 3, 2006. Can't WAIT! :)

Sebelius said she could not “support allowing hidden weapons into businesses, restaurants, malls and any number of other public places.

Ooooooo, HIDDEN WEAPONS!

Sounds so much scarier than concealed.

Most of law enforcement organizations here in Texas opposed the CCW law at first. After a number of years' experience, the same ones who opposed it are now in favor of it.

So, if one is trained and is permitted, how can conceal carry be a detriment to society? It's the thugs and criminals that need a deterrent.

Kansas is a Republican state with a socialist governor.

“I continue to hear from the police chiefs and other law enforcement officials, members of the clergy, health-care workers and employers throughout our state that concealed weapons on the streets make our citizens less safe and secure,” she said.

God forbid you do your own research.

In a statement attached to her veto of the concealed-weapons bill, Sebelius said she could not “support allowing hidden weapons into businesses, restaurants, malls and any number of other public places.”

"After all," she would have loved to continue saying, "that is a right solely reserved for the criminals."

I just received an email from the NRA stating the senate override will be attempted today. There were about 4 dims and 2 pubbies Sebelius was putting pressure on according to the email.

Kansas can't elect a decent governor whether it be dim or pubbie. Graves was a republican but he wasn't much better.

Kansas is one of only four states with no concealed-weapons law.

I'd bet money that well-connected Kansans get around this by being "deputized" after making a fat contribution to the local sheriff. Or, they have their own bodyguards.

It's the common man who most benefits from shall-issue CCW. I hope they override the b**ch.

Round here unarmed, mentally-retarded people are more likely to get killed by the police than any CCW holders.

Yeah, and if she doesn't allow law abiding citizens to get a permit then criminals won't carry "hidden" weapons into public places will they? What an idiot, as most dimwits are.

Does that mean she's give up her armed security detail?

Just a thought.

I'm not from Kansas but I imagine that if this woman continues to carry on in this manner she's going to need that armed security detail where ever she goes.

Just a thought.

KS deserves what they get they voted the Lib in.

My in-laws live in KS and I always remind them of what they voted for.

Interesting, since just about "everywhere" is by definition a public place now thanks to hysterical busy-bodies - i.e. anti-tobacco legislation. But notice the abrupt about-face when it comes to allowing the sheeple any semblence of self-defense in those very same public places.

In other words, die quietly, don't ask too many questions, and NO SMOKING!
