The first bill would make it illegal for anyone charged with a felony, but not yet convicted, to buy, transfer, sell, or possess a firearm.

Re: 3 new PA gun laws, MAYBE
I hope I am over thinking this. Maybe it is just me. If they pass the bill for a mandatory sentence for carrying a gun without a license. Wouldn't that, depending how it was worded, cause a law against OC without a license? Currently their is no law against OC. However OCing a gun is carrying a gun. And if you are unlicensed.... you get where I am going with this?

No they are all bullshit. I have come to the conclusion that *any* gun control is negative, period.

Re: 3 new PA gun laws, MAYBE
I have to agree with most of what you stated, with the exception of the Megan's law reference. I believe that we are already way too lenient on the perverts that prey upon woman and innocent children. If making them register is an inconvenience and or a burden, so be it. I personally believe that they should lock them up and throw away the keys.
I Am Not A Lawyer, and I don't even play one on the internet. Never mistake my opinion for legal advice. If you do need legal advise, seek it from those who get paid to give it, I know I do.

The first bill would make it illegal for anyone charged with a felony, but not yet convicted, to buy, transfer, sell, or possess a firearm.
The second would prohibit anyone convicted of a felony drug offense as a juvenile from buying or owning a gun as an adult.
The third bill would require a mandatory one-year sentence for carrying a gun without a license. It was first introduced in 2007, but failed to move out of committee.

Re: 3 new PA gun laws, MAYBE
I'm no gun activist, but I don't understand how stricter gun laws or outlawing assault weapons will help anything. Several days ago some lunatic in Fredrick, MD killed his wife, three children, and himself. Md has pretty extreme gun laws, but this guy was able to get his hands on one. And, it wasn't a "deadly" assault weapon, it was a 25 cal handgun. So, it seems to me that the people who shouldn't have guns will get them anyway and do whatever it is they are going to do and us lawbiding citizens will be the unarmed, unprotected individuals who are preyed upon.
