WY HB-70 Court Security Bill is an Sneak Attack at Expanding Gun Free Zones
Ammoland ^ | 20 February, 2012 | Anthony Bouchard

Wyoming --(Ammoland.com)- Tell them to vote no on HB-70 Court Security – a bill disguised as a court security measure – when in fact it specifies a change to current law making “Any COUNTY BUILDING containing a district or circuit court” a gun free zone.

Make no mistake this is an under the radar push to create additional gun control in Wyoming.

Imagine walking in to the county center to pay for a vehicle license or a permit fee while forgetting to leave your firearm in the car, only to be reduced to “criminal status” with jail time and fines for merely exercising the “God-given” right to self defense.

And let’s not forget when a firearm is left in a vehicle it becomes susceptible to falling into the hands of career criminals – possibly even turning the tables back – now you, the law-abiding citizen, is a helpless victim facing a violent attacker who may now be armed with the very gun you once held within hands reach.

HB-70 will make the local government complex (county building) an additional place where – the most basic right to self defense – will once again be in “big-brothers” clutches.

But this will only happen if you and I let it! Please help me stop this dangerous legislation. Email your state representative ASAP and ask them to kill this legislation that creates new gun free zones.

In addition to contacting your state representative, share this email with like minded friends and family this must go viral if we are to stop this dangerous legislation.

If they want to make them victim disarmament zones, the proper way is to have a way to secure your firearms in the building. They should also disarm all the police, deputies, and building security in the building if they want to really feel safe.
