Concealed carry reciprocity passes in the House
!!! And an email yesterday from the anti-gun Everytown:
"House leaders are set to bring the "Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017" to a vote TOMORROW. This means that the House of Representatives is less than 24 hours from bringing the NRA's reckless dream bill one step closer to reality. There's no time to lose.
We NEED your voice in this. Send your message RIGHT NOW urging your Representative to vote NO on the "Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017."
A word to the wise this holiday season.....
No matter how tempting if may seem, don't go binge drinking hand sanitizer. An ounce of hand sanitizer, a bit of Benedictine, splash of bitters...

R.I.P. John Snyder
John Snyder has passed on. I hadn't heard until tonight. He started out as a writer for The American Rifleman, sometime before I met in 1979 had become the lobbyist for Citizens' Committee on the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. He was 89. A good man.
"Only the police are competent to have guns"
Officer fatally shot by his firearms trainer.
"This case arises from the grievous death of State Trooper David Kedra, who was shot and killed by his instructor, then-Corporal Richard Schroeter, during a routine firearms training. Although a long-term veteran of the police force and specifically certified in the safe use of firearms, Schroeter allegedly disregarded each of the steps that he previously acknowledged in writing were required to safely perform a live demonstration of a firearm--skipping over both his own safety check and an independent check by a second person, treating the gun as if it were unloaded instead of loaded, pointing it at a person instead of a safe target, bypassing the required visual and physical inspection before a "trigger pull," and then pulling the trigger with the gun aimed at Kedra's chest."
