Just curious, why O'Malley isn't named? Isn't he in charge of the MSP both on and off paper?
You may be correct there. I thought that S.C. had to review the state to see if the permit meets their criteria first before reciprocity is given.
I may be wrong here.
It's time to pony up, folks.
How does MSI figure in this? Did SAF consult them? Is MSI helping foot the bill? Aside from supporting the little guy, why is it better to send $150 to each instead of $300 to SAF? Just trying to figure it out.
Best $150.00 I ever spent.
To SAF, MSI, Gura, Hansel and company,
UNLEASH HELL!!!!
Hell on the courts is coming. I have nearly 5 weeks of vacation time accrued to work with the plantiffs on this.
I'm not a smart man, but what I lack in brains I make up for in purely reliable blue collar labor.
A lot of questions, and I've been away all day...same with Norton.
MSI knew about this a while back, and while all the armchair quarterbacks were bitching that we weren't "doing enough" or we were being "too polite" we were grinding our teeth trying to remain mute while getting all of our ducks in a row. Norton did a lot of background research for this case and got a lot of the names, dates and info that will be needed to make this a success.
And yes, we are helping to foot the bill. We've been holding off on purchasing a lot of things that people thought we should buy, and holding back on things that people thought we should do. We (MSI) will be cutting a major check to support this. This is our mission, and we've been laying groundwork in ways that weren't appropriate for public discussion.
So to the impatient paeople that have been pissing and moaning about the lack of action, you can go **** yourselves. Thanks for making our jobs ten times harder while we put things together for this.
There's others that will be influential in this as well, but I'll let them announce their involvement whenever they feel the time is right.
But this is no slam dunk, and don't think for a second that win or lose, our enemies in the legislature won't try to pay us back tenfold.
As to the money thing, I don'tt hink it matters where you send money to now....just send it. This case is priority one for MSI as it's the flagship mission. Fighting other bad legislation, as important as it is to do so is always second on the mission statement and we're a few months away from MD's legislative session.
You could spell-check Clandestine.
Bah... just thought you were drunk!

I spoke to the Michigan State Police when I was traveling with my work permits (MD Specifically). They said they will not honor restricted permits.
Perhaps local cops wouldnt care but I wont test it.

As important as this is, I don't support a tax style of raising money. This should be a voluntary effort.Back when I was active in scuba diving in the '90s it was common for certain locations to charge a fee to help pay for a decompression chamber, in case a diver had an accident.
Along those lines how about MSI working with the FFLs in state to collect a $10/gun "fee" to help fund this. Why not rework the MSI site to allow a person to make their own payments along this line. All of the $$ going to help defray the costs.
They probably won't have any reciprocity right away. I don't even know if it would be effective to sue for reciprocity if they give permits to non-residents. Either way
