Corbett and the Pennsylvania State Police Database
There are only 2 people in Pennsylvania that can put a stop to the State Police using the Firearms Sales database as a registry and do you know who they are? One is the Governor and the other is the Attorney General! What do both have in common? Tom (I want to be the Governor) Corbett. Guess what practice has not been stopped?? And Corbett wants us to promote him to governor with the promise he'll put an end to it.
I'm calling B.S. on Corbett

Re: Corbett and the Pennsylvania State Police Database
If he is/was able to stop it, it should be done now. There's no reason that it has to wait until election on a possibly false promise. I would think he would get much more support for his current and former actions than any promises that we all know are BS coming from any politician.

Re: Corbett and the Pennsylvania State Police Database
He would have to sue and the governor would, at a minimum, file an amicus brief in support of the State Police. More taxpayers would throw a shit fit about one government office suing another government office than would support Corbett. Sometimes you need to know when to fold 'em. If Corbett ends up as the R. candidate and wins the election it is a simple matter of ordering the State Police to drop the policy immediately.

Re: Corbett and the Pennsylvania State Police Database
Problem with that theory is that if he becomes Governor, that status-quo policy is now to an advantage to him and his agents (i.e. the PSP) in the execution of their duties. An unfair and illegal one to be sure, but an advantage nonetheless. As such, that advantage will make him less likely to use his authority to drop the policy.

Re: Corbett and the Pennsylvania State Police Database
While what you say is true CR, Corbett has already stated quite publicly that he will force the State Police to stop retaining the data. So do we condemn him for what he may do as you suggest or do we give him enough rope to hang himself by forcing him to comply with what he said he would do? Considering that only one of his Republican opponents has stated that he would also tell the State Police to stop retaining the data do we say that Corbett is someone we can't trust but the other is someone we can? In my estimation both of the candidates in question have proven to be friends to gun owners.

Re: Corbett and the Pennsylvania State Police Database
i say support whoever you want in the primary.
in the general election, though, unless you want to vote 3rd party (which, imho, is generally a good idea), please vote for corbett rather than onorato (aka "dan the tax man", aka "dan the gun grabber man" ).Last edited by LittleRedToyota; April 8th, 2010 at 03:24 PM.

Re: Corbett and the Pennsylvania State Police Database
This is off the Atorney Generals Web site.
As Pennsylvania's top law enforcement officer, Attorney General Tom Corbett works to attack drug trafficking, Internet predators, gun violence, public corruption and other criminal activity; making our state a safer place to live, work and raise a family. The Attorney General's Office protects children from Internet predators, pursues con artists who target our seniors, targets drug trafficking and gun violence in our neighborhoods and fights fraud and scams that can be financially devastating to families.
