None in my area either. However, if you're looking for what district you're in, here's a helpful tool: www.kslegislature.org/legsrv-legisportal/redistricting.do |

Does this mean all the evil people in MO with CCW's will be able to cross the border without fear? I haven't shopped in KS since the day I got my CCW permit even though I work there. I think in the Johnson County area even if it passes the cops are so on top of the law there will be a lot of problems with harassment etc.. You all have gotten a ton of gas stations robbed lately, as well as people coming in through an open garage at night tearing through peoples homes.
I work a stones throw from 3 banks, all have been held up at least once in the last 5 years I've been here. I'm also 10 feet from our front door, so any robber who thinks he's going to hide or hold one of us hostage is gonna get the G26 I keep in my desk up his azz. Good luck! |

Well the nice thing would be if it passes you can LEGALLY carry your weapon in Kansas. I read some of the legislation and it would recognize all other state conceal license holders |

A similar bill already passed a couple years ago and the whore in office shot it down with a VETO, Kathleen Sebelius will veto it AGAIN. If only we would have elected a freedom loving govenor.
 I hope this time is different but I really doubt it until she is out of office. They will need a majority so high it can't be vetoed. |

That would make my life in Kansas City much easier. I have to stop at the border and unload/case if I want to go in and not risk a life-changing traffic stop. |

Yes, but if it made it to her she might be pressured into voting for it this year because of the election cycle. |

And btw, I was never a fan of voting in a Woman Governor to Kansas and was sad to see Graves go. If I could have voted against her, I would have. ETA: crossed out part, I cant read apparently.

We've been trying to get just CCW for a long time. Heck, I'd be pretty happy if we had state-level pre-emption of local weapons laws; at least then we could open-carry. Baby steps... Jim |

The other recent whore who shot down CCW was Graves, our last Republican governor. If the Kansas republican party would run a decent candiate for Governor, they'd win. Right-wing nutjobs will not win the Governor's seat in Kansas, no matter what the right-wing nutjobs running the party here think. So long as they keep running the worst possible candidate, we'll keep getting Democratic governors. In the last election, if Kerr had been the (R) nominee instead of Shallenberger, we'd have Kerr in the Governor's office. I have no idea if he'd sign CCW, but he would have taken the Governor's race.

Open-carry in cities where local ordinances prohibit, would be nice. Open-carry in rural areas is nice, but unless you live in a rural area and never go to a city, .

I was told a law was recently passed with states cities may not enact stricter gun laws then what are on the state level. Which would mean you could open carry in the city, but I still wouldnt advise it or you'll spend all day talking to cops.

This is one issue I dont get.
I am in Kansas and the news comes on saying Bush just spoke at KU or some university. And something like 70% of Kansas voted for Bush and are Republican. Yet they seem so anti. I just dont get it. |

McPherson County was a dry county up until a few years ago. Lindsborg (my town) was dry until 2 years ago. Its a lot of extremely-extremely conservative Mennonites, Lutherans and some Christians. Most of them are farmers or "rural boys" who dont really care about having the right to carry weapons concealed.

Tell your legislators I only vacation in states that recognize my concealed carry rights. Nebraska needs to pass CCW too.

Governor signs bill simplifying gun laws (Kansas) The Wichita Eagle ^ | Apr. 16, 2005 | Associated Press Posted on 04/18/2005 1:07:46 PM PDT by neverdem TOPEKA - Gun rights advocates scored a victory when Gov. Kathleen Sebelius made it easier for people to transport firearms in Kansas without fear of being arrested. A new law the governor signed Friday makes it legal to carry a firearm anywhere in the state as long as it's unloaded and in an enclosed container. The law, which takes effect July 1, says local governments can't impose more stringent controls. "Currently hunters and other law-abiding gun owners traveling across Kansas may unknowingly violate gun ordinances by simply driving through another town," Sebelius said in statement. Sen. Phil Journey, R-Haysville, a backer of the legislation, praised the governor. He and other gun rights advocates said the bill was needed to protect gun owners from unfair prosecution. "It confirms my belief that this is good public policy for the state," Journey said. "It will enhance the economic engine that drives the rural economy because out-of-state hunters now will know what the rules are." Local governments can still prosecute people for carrying a concealed weapon. The new law also allows local governments to have less restrictive requirements. For instance, a county could allow people to carry firearms in the gun rack of a pickup. The new law also allows law enforcement agencies to sell or trade seized firearms and allows sheriffs to execute warrants to seize firearms from delinquent taxpayers. It also sets the stage for retired law enforcement officers to qualify to carry concealed weapons. |

As I understand it, the bill passed the Senate by a large enough margin to make a Executive veto a non-issue. The bill is currently pending in the House and looks to pass by about the same margin. Keep the calls on your local rep and the D-Lady Guvn'r won't even have a chance to veto it this time.

Sometime type up a mass email that we can flood the Governor's email with talking about the need for the 2nd amendment and how the right to carry helps law-abiding citizens.
And thanks for that article, Hakim.

not really gonna make a damn bit of difference until and unless we get the "inherently dangerous instrumentality" line of cases reversed. So long as firearms ownership is strict liablity then we can all still be sued, the current bill notwithstanding.
One of my most unplesant memories is the loss on Wood v. Groh when the KS Supremes failed to follow our arguement. I still take sh*t from my friends at the range for that one. Maybe if I'd written a better brief...........what am I thinkin! There is "no law west of the Kaw". :-) SHould have known we'd lose, but I let myself hope. |

Good grief. That's pretty retarded. Although as the parent of a minor, I can't see how you claim you are not liable for the damage they do to others. However, the implications of that with an adult third party that steals your gun are disturbing. |
