Re: Constitutional Bill Submitted in PA
Sorry, but there is no way we get a veto-proof majority vote in the House on this bill. If you polled republican gun owners on whether we should 'allow' gun purchases and licensing without a background check, I estimate that 25% would say 'no'. In SE PA I bet it is as high as 40%. So, I cant see even a simple majority in the House, never mind a super-majority.
I'm not saying that we shouldn't support the effort to advance it, because we most definitely should. But realistic expectations are important when conducting war.Help us restore election integrity in PA. Join PA Voters United

Re: Constitutional Bill Submitted in PA
I agree - The general failure of our society to promote the founding principles of this country is self-destructive. There was a time when our most important enemies were outside our borders, but that has definitely changed. The remaining populace, who actually believe in our founding principles, must speak up with louder and more active voices to educate the public on the criticality of those principles. If the tide of assaults, on our democratic republic and the freedoms it recognized, cannot be turned back, even more of those who claim-to-be 'conservative' will be promoting more and more restrictions on our freedoms...
Remember that Castle Doctrine was a success when Tom Corbett was governor... At that time, other opportunities were frittered away and he was eventually skewered right here for other perceived failures... IF gun-owners want real change, we should be committing ourselves to NEVER LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN...!!!
Let's elect a more freedom-loving government in PA - Then the power of lobbying persuasion will be effective in rolling back the burdonsome laws...

Re: Constitutional Bill Submitted in PA
Part of getting pro gun representation is getting our bills to the floor and getting votes on the record. We need to hold these people accountable and what better way than to show how they vote?

Re: Constitutional Bill Submitted in PA
I haven't looked at the bill, since it can't pass under Wolf; but does it ALLOW an LTCF? Because otherwise, we'll have issues around schools because of Federal law.
We also have some useful bypasses on loans to LTCF holders, which I would like to keep.
Honestly, we're a "shall issue" state. I appreciate the efforts, but would prefer to see it go towards allowing expungements of old 302's, which would fix a 100% bar to many decent people having any gun rights at all. A statutory fix would do it.Attorney Phil Kline, AKA gunlawyer001@gmail.com

My rep is Jake Wheatley, unless I can convince him it benefits black weed users he won't care.
Not that he'd show up to vote.
