Since the House passed National CCW today and we know the scum bags dems in the Senate will never pass it does anyone know how long the Bill can hang in limbo?



In other words can we keep this alive long enough to capture the Senate and White House?

No. At the end of each Congress, all bills die. It would have to be re-introduced in the new Congress.

If Harry Reid wants a better NRA rating, ( which seems to be important to him ) he will have to bring it to a vote )

I think there may be enough pro-gun dems in the senate to pass it.

Will zero sign it, he might in an attempt to get the independents back, or he might not in order to shore up his base.

Nobody knows, not even him.

It's not, stop using sound logic, it fucks up GD. It doesn't matter that it would take a whole different bill to do anything else, just like it would without this bill being law.

For example, here is what I found on the NRA_ILA site

It is important to note that, despite what a handful of self-proclaimed "pro-gun" activists claim, H.R. 822 would not create a federal registration or licensing system, nor would it establish a minimum federal standard for a carry permit. Rather, it would require the states to recognize each others' carry permits, just as they recognize driver's licenses and carry permits held by armored car guards.  Unfortunately, these self-proclaimed "gun rights" supporters, who have no active lobbying presence in Congress or any legislature, have an agenda that has very little to do with promoting the interests of gun owners.

The cynic in me says it's setting precedent for the government to pass more gun laws. If everyone has to recognize the federal law then there should be some uniformity to requirements, right?









Personally, I think more localized authority is better. They need to repeal old gun laws instead of making more.

States view drivers licenses as a privilege. I don't want the feds to reinforce this precedent, that carrying a firearm is a privilege. Even my home state of VA calls our CHPs a statutory privilege...something that the state grants you the ability to do, and can take away. VA has open carry which the state says satisfies our right to bear arms. I don't see anything in our state constitution that mentions open or concealed....



Of course I'd love to be able to carry into DC and Maryland as a VA resident.

I've got mixed feelings as well.  I'm a 10th Amendment guy myself and don't care for the Federal Govt. getting into state's business.  But this is a constitutional right.  If some state decided to impose censorship(which is what everybody already does indirectly through all the PC bullshit),  we wouldn't stand for it.  Why do we allow states to individually restrict our constitutional right to keep and bear arms?

I think the Tenth Amendment is a catch all for "everything we didn't put in the Constitution already" and as such the Second Amendment isn't really affected.  If one state required you to have a permit to practice your religion, publish your blog, or protest an unfair government policy, and this permit was not recognized by another state, the Federal government would not be out of line to compel other states to recognize your right to freedom of speech, religion, etc.

Gay marriage, abortion, marijuana, etc, are completely different debates because they are not mentioned in the Constitution, especially the Bill of Rights.  I think HR 822 is a step in the right direction.

Besides, I have a valid GA permit and live in CA, probably moving to HI soon, so this bill helps me directly
