GOP rep introduces nationwide concealed carry reciprocity

[Woobie]

Just one quick question for Kirk: exactly how many Bothans died to bring us this information?

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

The pony, the doll, the steak and lobster for dinner and the Ron Paul action figure, now with racist grip, that everyone wants have absolutely nothing to do with national reciprocity.

Focus, INGO, focus.

In post #10, the reference was to the hearing protection act and removing silencers. So, channeling my inner mrjarrell -- "reading comprehension is important". Yeah, I know...not nearly as snarky but I'm out of practice.

 

[Cygnus]

OR, for people who want to go to Boston, New York City and want to legally carry.

Well, if you want to make that yearly trip to Chelsea......you might be able to do it now......(Well for Boston. I don't think NY issues out of state licenses)

 

[ATM]

A new law to make me conceal my gun ...nationwide?

No thanks, GOP.

 

[CampingJosh]

This has absolutely no relevance to national reciprocity.

Uh... I thought that there was discussion also of the Hearing Protection Act, which is what I was referencing.

Only one, his name was Emannuel Bothans, "Manny" Bothans.

Remember Manny Bothans.

Lol, well done.

If hearing protection could save even just one Bothan from the clutches of the Empire, then federal legislation is totally worth it.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

As the only true guardian of Liberty here at INGO, I have awarded Manny Bothans the Order of Paul (posthumorlessly). To honor him, please write your Congressman and donate to NRA-ILA.

Can we donate to a pro-2A lobbying group that isn't so much like the Empire itself? Tell me LaPierre doesn't remind you of Palpatine....

In sticking with the grand INGO tradition you can engage in tribal virtue signalling by donating to ineffectual organizations that attack our rights so you can feel like a special snowflake. It would not be INGO without this.

No thanks, GOP.

Did someone say virtue signalling?

The NRA is certainly effective.

So is the AFL-CIO.

Doesn't mean either is immune from corruption.

Going back to the notion of focusing, though, is there another federal civil rights statute that would require a local court/prosecutor to pay for the attorneys fees of a defendant like this? I mean, not part of a separate civil rights action, but actually part of the (ostensibly) criminal case? You and other litigators probably have broader knowledge of these things.

When a person successfully asserts this sectionas a defense in a criminal proceeding, the court shall award the prevailing defendant a reasonable attorney’s fee.

#1 It would not change Indiana law.

#2 Carrying open is more important than carrying everywhere? O..................................K

 

[Excalibur]

I wonder will this bill be modified so that it fits with local laws and BS because of how drastically different state by state is.

Man, this virtue signalling is like whack a mole.

Yes, yes, the NRA is corrupt because it wins this excuses inaction and shields our virtue.

Oh no. Like the AFL-CIO, it is corrupt because it makes a metric shton of money.

Other groups are, apparently, just as effective. There is a marketplace of ideas when it comes to pursuing pro-2A goals.

Besides, as I've said when you and I have gone 'round about this, my issues with the NRA are not really about what they've done publicly. It is no more virtue signaling than trumpeting that you support the biggest elephant in the herd because fealty demands it.

The way I understand it, it simply allows people with permits or licenses to carry in states that have their own permits or licenses. It does not change state law (feds can't do that unless state law is unconstitutional).

The onus is on the carrier to know what the law is where he is going, which is the present situation.

Thank you ingo for vocabulary building. I had to look up virtue signaling.

Along these lines, it only allows reciprocity as to "concealed" carry. There are some states that don't allow OC, or have additional restrictions.

It doesn't supersede things like training requirements, etc. It does appear to supersede local-level regulations, but not state laws.
