Folks, Not sure how many of you understand just how badly you can be screwed by the Gun Free School Zone Act 0f 1995 but you all should be aware of it particularly if you have an out of state permit or are a resident of a free state.
Just as important is to be aware of HOW we got screwed and WHO screwed us so here's a brief synopsis of how the bill got passed and links at the bottom to the final votes in the House and Senate.
That bill was sponsored by Sen. Herb Kohl (D-Wis.). The bill ultimately got included in an appropriations bill and was passed as part of H.R. 3610: Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act, 1997 which a steamy pile of turd big gov RINO's (and Dems) voted for including Sen Judd Gregg, Lieberman, McCain, Lugar, Grassley, McConnell, Snowe, Mikulski, Lott, Reid, Domenici. Inhofe, Santorum and other familiar names.
How any of these people have good ratings from the NRA is beyond comprehension.....unless the NRA didn't oppose the bill
