Remember how rats in the Senate gamed the Thune Amendment?

With many fewer rats in the Senate, this bill would put those phonies in a serious bind.

Hey, if homosexuals can get married in one state and all states must honor it, it would only make sense that I can get a carry (conceiled or otherwise) permit in Idaho and all states must honor it.

Imagine using that permit while walking the streets of Manhattan. Sweet!

Have you folks been receiving emails from the Pro-gun group that is against this bill because they fear that once the Federal Goverment is given any control over concealed carry (even if, at this point, it seems innoccuous) they may use it as a springboard to take more control at a later time?

I wouldn’t be suprised at their proposed scenario. What do you think?

I thought the second amendment secured my right to self protection. Apparently, it secures my right to apply for a discretionary permit.

If the government made you apply for a bic lighter permit every time you bought one, we would call that infringement. Even if you could carry it across state lines without confiscation.

When that worthless Reid is kicked to the curb in 2012 and we have a Repub senate leader, this bill will pass, however if Obama is still the prez it will be vetoed, however again, then, if Obama is prez, the 2016 election will bring a VETO PROOF majority to the senate and house and the veto will be overridden...

So worst case scenario this bill will be law by the congress of 2016/17.
