So... The Chamber wants to force folks to buy their guns at brick and mortar stores rather than gun shows.
Who’d have thought!
It seems to me to be more than that, at least here in OK. I've seen them lobby against more than one pro-gun-owners'-rights bill. They seem to be fearful that recognizing and protecting the rights of law abiding gun owners will somehow be bad for business, yet I have not seen them present any data to support their position. I suspect petty tyrants like Bloomberg are behind some of this.
Furthermore, as another poster stated, the big gun shows in Tulsa attract a LOT of local and out-of-state people and dealers, and fill up hotel rooms all over the city. They eat at our restaurants, buy our gasoline and otherwise contribute a LOT of money to our economy, yet that never seems to be acknowledged by the CoC. I wonder why?
