I think you missed my point. My point is, I...Aesop,<br />I think you missed my point. My point is, I don't want every swingin dick in a uniform knowing I'm carrying, and I will not possess a CCW for any reason.<br />Telling the whole word you're married is quite different from telling the whole world you're armed.<br />I don't subscribe to any gun laws, as I think they're all an affront to my freedom.<br />I travel infrequently out of my state, where I supposedly enjoy "Constitutional Carry", and carry wherever and whenever I deem necessary, regardless of any local law.<br />If something bad happens, I may get in trouble, but at least I may still be alive.<br />National Reciprocity is just another wave of gun regulation, and paves the way to having all gun owners registered as such.<br />I suppose I'm guilty of not trusting my government to do the right thing with the laws they pass, and feel more comfortable not being on their radar.<br />Ned2Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-39489640990919891902017-12-05T10:10:54.019-08:002017-12-05T10:10:54.019-08:00I want to know what happens with out-of-state CCW ...I want to know what happens with out-of-state CCW licenses and if they'll need to be honored in the state-of-residence. For instance, as a NJ resident I can get a Florida CCW, would that then allow me to carry in NJ and NYC?<br /><br />The mind boggles. It would be tempting if not for the expense of being a test-case.<br /><br />Of course it probably wouldn't come to that, I'd just be executed out-of-hand on the roadside, in the interests of officer safety.<br /><br />Mark DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-89920999792449401102017-12-05T08:37:53.886-08:002017-12-05T08:37:53.886-08:00You've obviously no idea what the point is.
We...You've obviously no idea what the point is.<br />We already have national marriage license reciprocity.<br />It's called the "full faith and credit" clause of the US Constitution.<br />Do you imagine there's a national database of wedding licenses?<br /><br />All reciprocity means is that any state's CCW is <i>de facto</i> good everywhere, and no one may fail to recognize another state's legal act in giving you a CCW.<br />Not even Boston, Chicongo, or NYFC. Swarms of people will move out of postage stamp states and live in states where they can get a CCW, just to stick a thumb in the big city's eye.<br />(Bonus: how pissed off will New Yorkers be when everyone else from neighboring states and passers-through can have a gun with a valid CCW, but NYFC residents can't? Say goodbye to the Sullivan Act, in 3, 2,...)<br /><br />Currently, most CCWs are already valid in something like 40 states.<br />National CCW forces the other 10 to join that party, like it or not.<br />Freedom, it's what's for breakfast.<br /><br />Anything can be fucked up. Throwing out the baby with the bathwater because of what <i>could</i> happen is retarded.<br /><br />And if you imagine that exactly that sort of data isn't shared nationally already, you don't know what you don't know.<br /><br />But when you've got the votes to repeal the '68 GCA, give a holler.<br />Have fun storming the castle.<br />In the meantime, don't f*** everybody else because you're afraid of your own shadow.Aesophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834464741531503378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-35177220089261033572017-12-05T06:58:01.884-08:002017-12-05T06:58:01.884-08:00National reciprocity is a VERY BAD IDEA!
The last ...National reciprocity is a VERY BAD IDEA!<br />The last thing we want is hordes of gun owners flocking to get their CCW, just so they can travel armed across state lines.<br />This will essentially enable the Federal Government to compile a database, complete with fingerprints and personal info of all the CCW owners in the country.<br />Nothing could go wrong with that, right?<br />Imagine every cop from coast to coast instantly knowing if you have a CCW or not. Do you trust all of them to respect you for that? Really?<br />Go back to Maryland a few years ago when a Florida CCW holder was stopped for no reason by the Maryland Transportation Authority. Held for no reason, supposedly speeding, although no ticket was ever issued or recorded, verbally abused and threatened in front of his family etc etc.<br />Story here https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2014/01/20/update-on-the-mr-filippidis-maryland-concealed-carry-driver-incident/<br />Turns out the MDTA was using plate readers and cross referencing with the NICS data, which Maryland had been ILLEGALLY retaining within the state. OOPS! Guy was lucky not to get shot. I lived in Maryland for almost 20 years, and have a son in law enforcement still there. The very last thing we want is to entrust law enforcement, nationally, with this kind of info. <br />There is so much wrong with this idea. Hopefully it will get shoved in McConnels desk drawer until it's forgotten.<br />What we should be rallying around is the idea to repeal the 1968 Gun Control Act. If ever there was a piece of legislation that has shown itself to be of no benefit to society whatsoever, this is it by leaps and bounds.<br />And encourage everyone you know to protest ANY gun regulation, whatever it is, however small it seems.<br />Ned2Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-14695133449473536132017-12-05T04:15:19.487-08:002017-12-05T04:15:19.487-08:00It won't be a retreat, it'll be a retireme...It won't be a retreat, it'll be a retirement home.<br />With weapons emplacements.<br />As for the rest, way ahead of you there.<br /><br />@Anonymous,<br />Sorry, didn't make it clear: I <i>know</i> she's nominally a bloody Tory; with "friends" like that, who needs enemies?<br />Labour, OTOH, would be <i>building</i> the minaret atop Big Ben.Aesophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834464741531503378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-70495899628784655322017-12-05T03:02:49.616-08:002017-12-05T03:02:49.616-08:00Great that you're on the road to a retreat. Y...Great that you're on the road to a retreat. You might even get there one day. Not likely but probably more likely than actually needing it.<br />As one who built a retreat from scratch and lives in it do be aware that unless you live there in post SHFT like conditions you won't be ready. Never think that just buying stuff and storing it is enough. There is a learning curve that's best done before you need it for real.<br />1) if there are services crossing you property line - disconnect them.<br />2) Store as much stuff as you can easily afford. Guns and fun stuff come last in importance.<br />3) Make real good friends with the neighbors. They're your support and i worse comes to worse They'll suck up the bad stuff before it gets to you.<br />4) Do it now.lorenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00011213166003657827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-24778699735902038292017-12-05T01:23:36.257-08:002017-12-05T01:23:36.257-08:00I believe your friend Theresa May is on the conser...I believe your friend Theresa May is on the conservative side of British politics rather than Labour.
