HR 38 GAINING TRACTION IN CONGRESS

by Bob Walsh

HR 38 is also known as the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act. If passed into law it would REQUIRE jurisdictions to recognize valid concealed carry permits from other states for visitors and travelers. This also includes persons from states that have what is commonly called Constitutional Carry, that meaning if you are not a prohibited person you can carry a concealed weapon without a permit. Clearly the people from CA and NY are going bat-shit crazy over this. The bill has passed out of committee on a strict party-line vote.

All but one CA republican representative has signed on to the bill. The one exception is the House majority leader, Kevin McCarthy, who by custom does not take a co-sponsor position on legislation. The bill now has 213 co-sponsors, including four democrats.

Ben Tucker, an asshole liberal NYC Deputy Police Commissioner says that this legislation, if passed, would make it IMPOSSIBLE to safely police New York City. .

It is expected the bill will pass the House next week with little trouble. As there are many Democrap senators up for election next year in moderately conservative states it is distinctly possible that this sucker could actually pass.

Sometimes goodness, righteousness and the American Way do win out.
