A good example of a communists push to destroy America. What jackass wrote this piece of garbage and Kentucky should kick him or group in the as@
“A government public information website does not need to excerpted.”
Thank You!
The same person or persons who want Leftist actress Ashley Judd to be their Senator.
These parasites are everywhere. If Kentuckians allow this to pass, then say hello to Senator Judd.
Attention lawmakers and politicians -
disarming the people is EVIL.
Don’t be evil.
“What jackass wrote this piece of garbage and Kentucky should kick him or group in the as@”
I’ll bet that none of the legislators wrote this, this was waiting in the wings probably written by a “progressive” think tank. It’s no coincidence that this is all happening so quickly all over the country.

No problem. You got it noticed and others added some details. Good Job!
The reason for excerpting is copyright protection. Information openly posted on a government website is not going to fall under that protection. They don't have to worry about protecting an income stream; they just take more of ours anytime they want it.
I lived in KY in the 1960’s and this attack on the Right to keep and bear arms never would have happened then.
Aye, there's the rub. Declare an emergency and allow police to seize firearms a la Katrina and now Guntersville, Alabama (if the mayor gets his way).
Now, if the so-called "Universal" background check is in effect, during the "crisis" - all the government has to do is shut down the background check computers for "public safety" (cough) and ergo! All gun transactions frozen - except within the criminal element.
Two words.......Kathy Stein
Didn’t they tar and feather people in Kentucky for being dumb a-holes like these legislators.
