It's always bugged me that so many pro-2a folks are for CCW licensing.

Let me explain it to you. Before the law was passed, a person could only carry a gun when they were "traveling" in Texas. Now, by paying or bribing, depending on the term you wish to use, a person can carry a handgun. That's called a baby step forward. The TSRA is working to expand the areas that a person can carry. Hopefully with a lot of help from the TSRA, people who don't mind being on lists, we can get the payment or bribe, depending on the term you wish to use, reduced. Perhaps someday, the members of the TSRA, meaning the people who don't mind being on a list, can work for a "Vermont Law". That is if we get enough people, people who don't mind being on lists, to back it and vote for it.

I wish to take this opportunity to thank the members of the TSRA, of which I'm a member, for being on "The List".

It's a lot more entertaining to accuse CCW supporters of selling out.

It's not perfect, but it beats the alternative of keeping CCW a felony.

S.O.S - Be sure and try the "natural rights" argument on the next Judge or JOP you meet after getting picked up for illegally packing, and see how much sympathy you get.

Soccer moms outnumber no limits pro-2a advocates by about 4 million to one in this country, and until you change a lot of minds, your "natural right" to self defense will get you nowhere but arrested.

"Let me explain it to you."

You didn't 'splane poop there. My birth certificate and a DD-214 is all I need to understand the 2nd. Amendment. LEO's know this....you beg for your rights....I WILL defend mine.
