Thune Introduces Bill To Allow Concealed Firearms To Be Carried Across State Lines

AMEN, AMEN, AMEN...

They allow me to operate my motor vehicle over state lines (they kill more people per year than guns do) so why is it such an issue for me to carry a firearm? I have a family summer home over the border in upstate NY. I would love nothing more than to be able to just drive over the border. I'll keep fingers crossed and pray...

If they ask for a nationwide vote we all need to make it happen... Spread the word, send your senator a letter.

This one will be back, when the following two conditions are met:

1. McDonald v The City of Chicago comes down with a victory for Incorporation using Strict Scrutiny. Does not matter if the reason is the Equal Protection and/or Privileges and Immunities clauses of the 14th Amendment.
2. A bill comes up in the Senate that must pass, and it becomes an amendment to that bill with over 59 votes.

The combination of the upcoming election and the fear of being on the rong (States Rights) side of the argument will get us the number of votes we need.

We had 58 the last time, and Teddy has gone to meet his maker. The political climate is much more condusive to it passing now. Election Day is coming near for 1/3 of the Senate, and some of them who did not vote our way will take this opportunity to make belated amends...

I'm lucky. Texas is so damn big and I'm smack dab in the middle (pert near). So I almost never leave it. Plus we have resiprosity with all the states around us - heck, 31 total last I checked. So it's only when I visit either of the other coasts that I'm not legal (oh, and the PRIL and PRWI) - which I avoid.
