Given the decision between a known (Simmons) and an unknown that worked on in the Brady house (Kegan), I would suggest Simmons.
And here is why, Lou has worked with the 2A community in the past, don't get me wrong, there is a lot we agree to disagree on, but Lou will sit down and listen and tell if he will work with you on an issue or not.
Just my opinion, from what I have observed and done as an individual, not an endorsement by from any position I may hold in any particular 2A organization (MSI).
I disagree. I think, all things being equal, we would be better off with fresh faces in Annapolis. Ones that don't already have friends or owe favors there. We want the ones with the least power and pull if we can't get an ally in.
