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

[jesemd]

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.
