I just got an e-mail from the Brady Campaign. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, but their lies seem even more brazen lately. They want their supporters to oppose S. 845 which would establish concealed carry reciprocity. In their words:
This legislation would force states, your state, to allow dangerous individuals to pack heat in public.
And,
This legislation would allow the carrying of loaded, concealed firearms outside a person's home state, even by persons legally barred from possessing guns in the state where the carrying occurs.
Here is the actual language of the bill:
‘Sec. 926D. Reciprocity for the carrying of certain concealed firearms
‘Notwithstanding any provision of the law of any State or political subdivision thereof:
‘(1) A person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm, and is carrying a valid license or permit which is issued pursuant to the law of any State and which permits the person to carry a concealed firearm, may carry a concealed firearm in accordance with the terms of the license or permit in any State that allows its residents to carry concealed firearms, subject to the laws of the State in which the firearm is carried concerning specific types of locations in which firearms may not be carried.
‘(2) A person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm, and is otherwise than as described in paragraph (1) entitled to carry a concealed firearm in and pursuant to the law of the State in which the person resides, may carry a concealed firearm in accordance with the laws of the State in which the person resides in any State that allows its residents to carry concealed firearms, subject to the laws of the State in which the firearm is carried concerning specific types of locations in which firearms may not be carried.’.
Unfortunately, chances are slim it will ever pass........
