They apparently deem government now big and powerful enough to take care of its own, not more pandering necessary. <br /><br />Gonna make for some interesting times in the near future. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-21630178613553798212015-05-23T13:36:49.102-05:002015-05-23T13:36:49.102-05:00Campus carry is getting a second at-bat:

They are: Assembly members <br />>James Oscarson, Jim Wheeler, Melissa Woodbury, Derek <br />>Armstrong, Chris Edwards, Stephen Silberkraus and Lynn <br />>Stewart.<br /><br />Bastards must've gotten an earful from their constituents after Michele Fiore exposed them yesterday morning on the radio. If they'd done the right thing, all this could've been avoided. Crap like this is further justification for having quit the GOP for the Independent American Party, as far as I'm concerned.<br /><br />As for the rest of SB175, it's a mix of good and bad. On the one hand, it outlaws Clark County's handgun registration scheme and expands CCW reciprocity. On the other hand, it strips gun rights from those with certain misdemeanor convictions (you get one guess as to what sort).Scotthttps://alfter.us/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-108002097184288592015-05-23T12:08:14.029-05:002015-05-23T12:08:14.029-05:00I live in Las Vegas.

I did not appreciate the Assembly judiciary committee attempting to derail 1) Elimination of the Clark County "Blue Card" handgun registration in favor of complete state preemption, 2) Complete opening of CCW reciprocity to other states' permits, 3) extension of a presumption of justifiable homicide when defending one's car, not just one's home by trying to amend the bill with campus carry. We also, unfortunately, got the Lautenberg misdemeanor domestic violence prohibition language codified into NRS. Getting rid of that handgun registration scheme (and all the other local laws like are found in North Las Vegas and Henderson) was job 1 and they accomplished that. Campus carry is contentious enough that it should be able to stand on its own. It is too bad we didn't get to see them vote on it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-59364270562362247072015-05-23T11:59:28.841-05:002015-05-23T11:59:28.841-05:00Same thing happened in Florida SB176 stopped cold....Same thing happened in Florida SB176 stopped cold.
