Yes it is acceptable, especially since a bill to change G&S died. You don't think the "will of the people" would be his answer there? . . . We differ there apparently.
Yes we disagree. You keep characterizing Hogan's promise not to repeal existing gun laws (SB281) with a possible failure on Pollazzi's part to exercise administrative authority to implement revised G&S policies. Pollazzi is not bound to "carry on" as usual, and this is not analogous to OweBummer on immigration. Pollazzi has statutory authority and discretion.
Moreover, the "will of the people" isn't an acceptable answer when we are talking about fundamental rights, constitutionally enumerated rights, and administrative authority to implement positive change to reduce some of the infringement. If there is no action, and if that turns out to be his excuse, then he never intended to provide any relief, doesn't really care about the Constitution or the 2A, and in my book he lied about being a 2A supporter. But we aren't there yet - just getting closer everyday. I hope all this speculation is for naught.
