Good for Georgia!
Guns in Church! Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition. Ellijay, Georgia (CNN) -- Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal signed a wide-ranging gun bill into law Wednesday that has critics howling and proponents applauding. House Bill 60, or the Safe Carry Protection Act of 2014 -- which opponents have nicknamed the "guns everywhere bill" -- specifies where Georgia residents can carry weapons. Included are provisions that allow residents who have concealed carry permits to take guns into some bars, churches, school zones, government buildings and certain parts of airports. GeorgiaCarry, which lobbied for the bill, calls it "meaningful pro-gun legislation," despite it being watered down from the group's perspective. Still, the group has lauded the legislation, which will go into effect July 1. Americans for Responsible Solutions opposed the bill, calling it "extremism in action." http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/23/us/georgia-governor-signs-gun-bill/index.html?hpt=hp_t2 |

Yes we did.
I called and emailed my ass off for this bill, as did a lot of GA gun owners. Get active and get it done, or stay home and whine. |

I love this part at the end:
Deal also touted how HB60 would allow soldiers to obtain a carry license at age 18. "If they're old enough to hold a gun in defense of our liberties, then they're old enough to hold a gun, and they shouldn't have to wait until they're 21." |

God Bless Georgia Carry.
They (and their membership, of which I am proud to say I am) are nearly singlehandedly responsible for the vast improvements in carry issues and firearms law in the state of GA in the past six years. And we ain't done yet.  |

Tennessee did all those except make the exemption for soldiers in like 2010. No blood in the streets or daily bar shootouts (except for Memphis, which we all know is not Tennessee)

Expanded gun rights = extremism.
Banning all guns everywhere = not extremism. Good freaking lord. No sense of scale on these people. |

Happy to see it signed after all the phone calls and letters and faxes.
Amazed at all the national attention. It really is more of a refinement than anything. Our laws were already better than most after the revisions made a few years ago. We even have state knife preemption. |

Are churches opt-in or opt-out?
I'm also curious how the airport bit works out with Hartsfield. They were supposed to let us carry while there already, but have stated that they would violate the law and arrest us.
