National Reciprocity?

[twyacht]

The Fed does not have a good enough record to handle trash collection properly. So I am encouraged how?

Maybe my post on Water Smitty, and his 2nd Amend Rights hold true.  A Soros, Progressive, Feinstien/Schumer sponsored database will KNOW who you are, where you are, and what recent guns you have.

All the easier to make no knock entries....Keep trusting the gov't......This is not a tinfoil hat folks.....

A Gov't database of CCW holders? Really? I feel better already...

Eric Holder even approves....He learned form Janet Reno so it's all good....

Here's a question. Regardless of whether you are sceptical of a federal bill on CCW (as I am, or support it: why bring it up now? Short of monumental GOP stupidity in the next few months the GOP will control both houses. Why bring it up and have to deal with the Dems when you can wait a few months and have a much stronger position vis a vis amendments? I mean granted Reid is pro 2A, but the committee chairmen, not as many as I'd like. Just askin'.

Are you sure about that? I think Reid is about as pro 2A as Hugo Chavez
He may talk a good game, but check his voting record.

He's got an A rating from the NRA and opposed the AWB all the way through. That's more than W. who wanted to renew it. As far as the link, a lot of those were procedural votes taken out of context. Sometimes you vote for something so you can vote against it. Eg, letting a bill out of commitee as a favor to a party member who wants to claim some credit,when you both know it will die on the floor. Or alternatively making something come to the floor so you can embarrass those who vote for it, even if they know it will lose. Its called strategic voting and its every day on the Hill.

Sen. Reid has learned how to make himself look pro-gun when he is really one of our worst enemies.  He is the same as many gun owners that view gun rights as being hunting, sporting, and maybe even competition, but they can't really understand competition.  They all talk Second Amendment protections, and they all strongly support them, but they have a distorted view of what the Second Amendment really protects and why.

This is the reason I have proposed my belief.  It is also the reason I try and find a way to be "Uncle Ted" in a more crowd friendly manor.  We don't need more rules and laws that grant us permission to exercise our constitutionally protected rights!  Let me exercise my Second Amendment protected right in the same way we protect an illegal's voting rights today.

If you get C-Span they will cover the debate on this today (Wednesday) at 12:00pm ET.

Even on subjects that interest me , I find CSPAN about as interesting as watching paint dry.
By the time some failed lawyer gets done talking around the actual answer I've forgotten what the equally long winded question was.
