Tomorrow, april 17, is the big day at the capitol!!!

Nathan Hale · Apr 16, 2018

TOMORROW IS THE DAY TO SHOW UP AT THE CAPITAL!!!. Tell your fellow gun owners. WE NEED TO SHOW UP!!! We CAN lose if we do not fight. (There is nothing magical about gun rights in Louisiana.)

House Committee hearings are in the morning; The PREEMPTION REPEAL bill is in Senate Committee in the afternoon.

Micheal Bloomberg funded "Moms Demand Action" will be there trying to take our gun rights away. Remember, no matter what these people say, they hate guns and their ultimate goal is to make civilian ownership of all weapons illegal. They don't give a damn about the Constitution or law abiding gun owners.

Another bill going up before a committee tomorrow is HB400 which is the ten day waiting period bill. It will be heard by the House committee for the administration of criminal justice. SB185 which would give local jurisdictions the power to enact whatever gun control they want is SB185 which will be heard by Senate Judiciary B. You can watch the committee meetings live online here:

Just click on the committee you want to view which would be the ones I named above.

Isn't it already illegal to illegally purchase a firearm?

oleheat · Apr 17, 2018

Writing reps again, this AM.

Terry Landry.....SMDH. I STILL can't believe Mike Foster appointed that guy to be the head of LSP..... :mad:

Emperor · Apr 17, 2018

HB 400 Defeated 10-6

John Bagneris is a dangerous politician! He is openly advocating for the elimination of the 2nd Amendment, he's just too dumb to hide it.

It is absolutely crystal clear, the sponsors of these anti-gun Bills have no clue whatsoever about the laws already in place.

I think murder may be illegal, too. Seems like all of society's problems should already be legislatively solved...

Oilman · Apr 17, 2018

The committee just finished hearing HB400 which is for the ten day waiting period. The committee voted 6 yeas and 10 nays. Woo hoo.

Emperor · Apr 17, 2018

Black Legislators voting along racial lines! What a surprise!

HB 473 Defeated 11 - 7

Oilman · Apr 17, 2018

Committee vote on HB473, the bump stock bill: 7 yeas, 11 nays.

Emperor · Apr 17, 2018

Most of you already know this, but I can tell you that these democrats are flat out stupid when it comes to firearms and the Right for us to have them. They absolutely do not care about the facts, the Constitution, or any one's Rights, nothing! IMO, they have no business making any laws for me!

It really is a shame that this is probably the only thing wrong with our Republic when it comes to democracy. People elected to represent others who have no clue what the people they have elected are actually representing.

This vulgar display of demagoguery is astonishing, pathetic, and reprehensible.

Thank goodness Helena Moreno is now trying to continue Mitch Landrieu's work for the destruction of New Orleans as The Council-at-large.

Oilman · Apr 17, 2018

Ok, now the big one. HB736 which would ban just about every type of semi-auto was voted on and the outcome was 7 yeas, 9 nays.

Does this necessarily mean the bill is dead for good without a new bill being authored?

So does this mean those who voted for these 7 assklowns will now voluntarily register all their weapons for pickup at a later date, anyway? Seeing as most of them live in high-crime areas, that would only make them safer, right???

People at this level of stupidity make me want to throw up. :puke:

Oilman · Apr 17, 2018

HB736 which would require private sales between individuals to go through and FFL and NICS has been killed 9 nays, 7 yeas.

Emperor · Apr 17, 2018

I would like to throw a very sincere thanks to those individuals that are patiently sitting through this agony, testifying on gun owners behalf, and putting up with this ridiculousness from these democrats!

In particular:

Dan Zelenka (La. Shooters Assn.)
Mike Weinburger (Home Defense Org.)
Erin Luper (NRA)
Col. Rob Maness (Gator PAC)
Tom Gresham

And those others that also took the time out of their work days, personal time, etc. to make it up there. 6 1/2 hours so far at 1:30, and still going!

XD-GEM · Apr 17, 2018

Right on, Emperor. Thanks to all who went and to all who called or wrote. We CAN make a difference if we work at it and are ever vigilant - even those of us represented by the Carters, Morenos, etc.

Emperor · Apr 17, 2018

FYI:

Looks like the Home Defense Foundation does some good stuff in New Orleans. Went on their website and ended up subscribing to their mailing list! I don't even live there! :dunno:

Seems they cater to the slightly older, less gun savvy homeowner crowd! Good on them!

Hard to beat "free" gun classes! If you guys down there know someone who might benefit from that, you should pass it on!

ABSOLUTELY!!! I wish I could be there, but this list of people do a hundred fold more than what you see going on today to keep our gun rights intact!

Can you try to find out for me from them why only black democrats pushed these Bills when it has no impact whatsoever on their own black constituents lives (or deaths)? I really would like to know which bunch got them in line?!?

Oilman · Apr 17, 2018

Soooo, in conclusion. All the anti-gun bills on today's agenda were voted down by their respective committees except SB185 which was voluntarily deferred by it's author. That was the bill which sought to let local govts enact whatever gun laws they wanted.

The only other one left that I am watching is the big brother ammo database bill which as far as I know is still not on an agenda schedule yet.

Tomorrow, april 17, is the big day at the capitol!!!
