God Bless Alabama!!

I think that's the first proposed law that I have read and understood fully. I'm assuming that Alabama has no laws that infringe on the right.

God Bless Free America. Maryland sucks so bad.

Watching the John Adams HBO series while reading this.

What's old is new again.

Go Bama!

What reason does one need other than it ain't Maryland?

This answers it better than I can:

There is a bill pending that does away with the need for a CCW when carrying in a vehicle as OC is legal without a permit. CCW is shall issue with just a NICS check required, it takes more time to fill out the form than for the check to be run. If you have a CCW then no NICS check for firearms purchase is required, just show your card. Don't ask me why gun canes are banned but that's the only thing banned. Most sheriffs here and the commander of the ALNG have some rather interesting views on how to prevent any further Federal infringements; let's just say they channel Captain Parker quite well.

Oh, the STATE OF ALABAMA! Like I needed another reason to love the rock group.
I was stationed at Ft. Rucker AL. for a short time. Didn't like it. I believe the gnat is the state bird.
Now, 48 yrs. later, I have deep respect and love for the state.

Amen for Alabama.

What I don't understand is why they are working on passing this symbolic law, if they aren't already a constitutional carry state. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great...but they need constitutional carry. I'd like to see "shall issue" become the old may issue. Permits for CCW should just be an optional thing.

They have been going in the good direction incrementally.

Cool. I'm sure Alabama will get there soon. A few states every year. This law is a good sign.

I wonder if we can get Dumais to come forward with a bill like this next year.
