Unfortunately Reid's vote is a procedural one that by voting against it, leaves him the option to bring it in again at a later date.

Sen from NY is a douche.  Claiming all officers say concealed carry is bad.  Claiming you can go to FL and get a CCW permit despite being a felon.  ****head.

Cornyn (TX) Amendment (National Reciprocity of CCW)

And Schumer is blasting it with outright lies.......(saying that it would allow felons to get CCW in Florida and come to New York.......TOTAL BULL)

Schumer said that every cop in America will tell you that concealed carry in Times Square would be a disaster. JUST WOW

Dan: hehehehe... feel like we should be sitting on the same couch with popcorn watching it.

Am at work (370 & Fort Crook) watching it online.

Schumer's statements opened up nicely as a possible valid point of contention (States rights) .... but the cop & felon ... just... wow.  How... the... >:D

That's awesome! Great job to everyone who put effort into speaking for "our side". I am still bewildered how us everday citizens have had to fight to protect our Constitution from our very own Government.

LOL yeah she is pissed. Now she's urging everyone to at least ban military style "assault weapons"

Senator Grassley of Iowa shot right back at her with zeal! :D

She couldn't be further from the truth.  But truth is something those type frown upon.  From what I have read online from Police articles more LEO's support an armed citizen than not.

He, this was Schmuer (NY) making these comments.


Heard the first bits of Grassley's rebuttal, it was rock solid from what I heard.

Had to do work stuff ... didn't get to hear the call.  Glad it got defeated \o/
