Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
If this shit doesn't motivate people to get off their lazy asses on June 8th, Pennsylvania gun owners deserve everything that comes there way.

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Looks to be the same as Virginia tried ramming thru.

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
I absolutely agree. Everything going on in VA should be a wake up call for all of us in PA. We are not safe as along as Tom Wolf is our Governor. I'm sure he's Bloomberg bought & paid for...

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Soros and Bloomberg have been buying control of state governments for some time. Soon they will control the federal government also.

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Rep Rob Kauffman chairs the House Judiciary Committee and has continued stand strong by NOT ADVANCING ANY anti 2A Bills out of his committee.
He told me before that he gets bombarded daily with nasty emails and calls because of his steadfast support of PA gun owners.
I just sent him an email thanking him for holding the line. I urge every here to do the same

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Just sent him a nice email expressing my thoughts of the great work he is doing to negate these liberals. I will be sending the meat of my email (my displeasure about these bills) to my own representative and senator as soon as I am done typing this.
-
Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Done again as well.
I wrote him a long letter of thanks after the Senate Judiciary Hearings last year.
He needs to know we're standing with him and proud of him. No weakness and no compromise on this issue.

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Can I get a volunteer to post a new thread in the Pennsylvania section entitled "Please email Rep Kauffman today, thank him for protecting the 2A".
Please include your concise email blurb as a suggestion for what people can send if they need help writing.
Include the link to Rep Kauffman's email form and a link to this thread.
I'm busy and can't do it until late tonight if no one gets to it first.
People can post the text of their emails in the new thread if they want to help.
Thank you.

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Will PA have 22,000+ show up for rally day, or wait until after the (almost) inevitable purchased flip of the legislature a-la Virginia?
Showtime is closer than we may think.

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
I am physically unable to attend the rally day but want to help. Ideas other than calling and emailing my reps which has already been done multiple times? I sponsored a bus seat for the VA rally for the same reason.

Print off info sheets and send them to local gun shops you're friendly with. Either to pin up on a message board or to hand out. See if your gun club has an email distribution list to send out the information to.
Thanks!

Of course they won't. Anyone expecting them to is mistaken. The effort is mostly a political statement (except to a degree in those states were local sheriffs are the primary agent for enforcement of local laws). As a political statement, it is hard for gun grabbing politicians to ignore because it involves local politicians from their own parties taking sides, not just citizens who they routinely dismiss as "gun nuts". I believe it worked in VA where wavering Democrats representing Sanctuary jurisdictions broke from the Bloombergian mass of Democrat gun grabbers and stopped at least the worst of the legislation from advancing out of Committee. The movement galvanized citizens to act. Look at the attendance for their "Lobby Day", the equivalent of our annual rally, this year on June 8.

In a sea of crap..... A few stick out as making sense a little?
First and foremost.... HB322 makes no sense... I thought it was a fed law that no convicted felons should be allowed to live in a home with any firearm.... correct me if I'm wrong. and HB726 May help deter the animals in Philly
HB 377 (Rep. Isaacson) – Destroying Confiscated or Recovered Firearms: Requires that law enforcement agencies in the Commonwealth destroy confiscated or recovered firearms if the owner cannot be found within 120 days.
As long as these people have gotten legitimate DUE Process.... this may deter any nutcases from endangering our second amendment rights
HB 459 (Rep. Cruz) – Pennsylvania State Police Notifications: Amends the Uniform Firearms Act to require that the Pennsylvania State Police be notified within 72 hours, instead of the current 7 days, that an individual has received mental health adjudication, treatment, commitment, or suffers from substance abuse or addiction.
Again... it will deter the crazy's.... but we need to comprehensively establish... what's constitutes as mental health treatment. Its quite the difference in someone seeking professional help because their spouse of 40 years die from the nutcases that likes sound of death for example
Edit.... I over looked the substance abuse part.... as long as that's apart of the bill... I do not agree with it. You've got people that have been clean for years and you may have some ex addicts that uses the 2nd amendment as an outlet to prevent themselves from relapsing in the first place..... and I'll be damned if I will give the government the excuse to use weed of all things to bar someone of their gun rights... dead
HB 525 (Rep. Briggs) – Protecting Children from Accidental Gun Injuries and Deaths: Requires a person who stores or leaves a firearm on premises under his or her control, and who knows that a minor would be likely to gain access to the firearm without permission of a parent or guardian, to keep the firearm in a locked container or other secure location.
This just makes sense.... its unfortunate that this has to even be a discussion like the reminders going to into Walmart about not forgetting your kids in the car in 90 degree weather
HB 724 (Rep. DeLuca) – Concealed Carry Permit Training: Requires individuals to complete a six hour firearm training program with a certified firearms instructor approved by the National Rifle Association prior to receiving a concealed carry permit.
I can see the pros... and I can definitely see cons of this becoming law. On one hand this could produce a better trained armed society in Pennsylvania that would be more knowledgeable in the laws of castle doctrine, better tacticts in the event you have to use your firearm to protect yourself, rights, and or country. This could also put some cash into the cash strapped NRA hands. The obvious con is that this is just another annoying systemic step to disenfranchise poor people becoming armed... the cost of getting a LTCF goes from $20 to $350-$500 for training.... which may be worth the cost... cause now the 2nd amendment society in PA has a lot more money now to throw into politics now (Libs didn't think of that lol) for example but... not everyone has that type of money... I see HB724 as a good outweighs the bad type of thing.... I would love to hear anyones thoughts or disagreements on this... maybe I'm not seeing the big picture here
HB 1288 (Rep. Sanchez) – Lost and Stolen Firearms: Requires a person who lawfully owns or possesses a firearm to report the loss or theft within 72 hours of the discovery of the loss or theft and establishes penalties for violations.
This makes sense... these illegal guns are coming from somewhere. this may help in my opinion

Re: Anti Gun Bills submitted last friday
Nothing deters the crazies if the law isn’t enforced regularly, consistently and fairly across race and economic classes. If the gang bangers get to plead down armed robbery, assault with a weapon, attempted murder, drug possession, illegal weapons and felony theft to changing lanes without signaling, there is no deterrent.
No new laws will ever be applied to career criminals because racism or some such bleeding heart BS. These laws will only get applied to law abiding citizens. Dad leaves his keychain with gun safe key on it within reach of nine month old = felon. No thanks.
Pursue convictions and maximum sentences for every single gun law we have now. Build more jails if needed. If we do that for ten years and there is a hole in the laws, then, and only then is it time to discuss more laws.

To this bill? I posted something somewhere else and they asked for the number for this bill. I’m still learning so please go easy. Lol
Which bill are you asking about specifically? There are multiple bills with bill numbers listed in the OP.
For example:
Quote:
HB 159 (Rep. Quinn) – Universal Background Checks: Subjects all firearm sales, regardless of barrel length, to background checks, and allows a person to obtain a 48-hour background check approval for a licensed gun show. Permits the issuance of a single background check approval that would remain valid for multiple days for use at gun shows across the Commonwealth.
is bill number HB159. You can search by bill number here: https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/home/bills/. just enter the bill number (HB159, for example) to pull up the actual bill info.
