Rep. Hudson to introduce Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act

[foxtrapper]

Where is the NRA on this? They should be hounding daily for this. And if they are, WTF is wrong with the congressional republicans?

Perhaps an opening to get another Senate seat? http://www.philly.com/philly/news/p...-democratic-fight-against-trump-20170818.html

This would be huge. The Senate has been a big cluster and a good replacement for Menendez could put this over the top.

We can only hope we gain 1 more seat.

Quite true, although remember the Manchin, Donnelly Dems are likely yes votes for reciprocity.
One which may be a big flip would be Claire McCaskill in MO, a total anti who's now in a very deep red state.

Fixed the link http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article...etter-job-making-sure-criminals-dont-get-guns

And yes the RINOS are going to start pushing gun control.

I dislike Ryan, and thought a mistake Trump didn't ask him to go before he even took oath of office. But..

Ryan’s response – keep guns away from criminals

Anyone making an issue with that statement needs help..

"I'd say two things. Number one, you've got to -- we've got to do a better job of making sure that criminals don't get guns or that people who are suspected of terrorism, like domestic terrorism, don't get guns."

"Suspected terrorism?" This sounds too much like the Democrats' obsession with their unconstitutional proposal to ban people on the do not fly list.

Fact: criminals will always be able to guns, no law can stop them, few laws even slow them down.

Then I guess I need help.

Liberals have been using the exact same language to push gun control for decades. Ryan should know better.

Two different meanings for the exact same language.

"Keeping guns out of the hands of criminals"......meaning actual criminals.

versus

"any citizen is a potential criminal, therefore we need to keep guns out of their hands".

Any plan to keep guns out of the hands of criminals, is only accomplished if the criminals are in prison.

In prison it's just called contraband.

Yes, but you can't predict criminality. You can only thwart it and punish it when it arises. Sure, there are societal issues that if dealt with properly can lessen crime but you'll never totally eliminate crime. It's the reality of this world that we live in. Still, keeping guns out of the hands of actual criminals is what we should strive to do.

The left's view however, is that any ordinary citizen is a potential criminal therefore no ordinary citizen can be trusted with firearms. A different ideological view on the same phrase.

There are a lot of things I disagree with Ryan on, but not everything he says is wrong.

This may, however, become an avenue for reciprocity. A deal could be in the works.

I think they do care but unfortunately can't do 2 things at once and the big items are bogged down right now.

Show me where any of them are excited. They want to play the game, but not have to come up to bat.

Until we get some real Republican beef sitting in those seats, I don't see how this bill is going to go anywhere, in either chamber.
