That is really jaw dropping news to hear from ashford... maybe he is playing nice on some issues so he can have more leverage on others??

I spoke. The lone Neutral on the bill. NRA lobbyist testified against, and offered the amendment for Ashford to drop the handgun permit increase from the bill
iiranger:
#1). As said, THANK YOU for attending.
#2). Mr. A remembers 1994. The "slaughter" that followed the passing of the Brady Law by Mr. (and Mrs.) C. He is saving his ammo. Remember Von Maur. This is "house keeping" but works against us. When the felony standard was set at $300.00 (for vandal damages for instance) the minimum wage was $01.00 dollars per hour, you could buy a McBurger for $0.15 and fries were $0.10... So if you went thru the line twice, once for each, you could eat for a quarter. Order both at the same time and you had to pay sales tax...
Point is "know the law" or you have no rights... Luck to us alllllllll.....

Thanks, CZ and Randy, for taking the time and making the effort to represent the NFOA members!!.....and for informing us of what took place!
--- Quote from: Chris Z on February 04, 2009, 10:42:16 PM ---I testified at the end of the hearing that we were neutral, and recommended amending statute 69-2403 to make an exception for Concealed Handgun Permit holders to be excepted from having to get a handgun purchase permit. I'm not going to hold my breath on that happening, but we'll see.

Hey, it's worth trying. Good recommendation. I'll send out my e-mails to the Senators that Randy listed!
