Here is the status of House Bill HR 1022 and a list of co-sponsors.  There are two co-sponsors from NC and I have e-mailed one, the other cannot be e-mailed, regarding my opposition to the bill and why.  I would recommend all members of the forum to do the same for their representatives in their respective states.  Thanks.

Now that would be great, maybe us pro 2nd amendment people should start pushing that bill.

HeHe...that was good Pyro, we did have one antigun politician once. They all but did feed him to the bears......gotta remember up here bears and nice big northern coyotes come into peoples yards still if they are rural. Keeps having a gun around the house on a lot of peoples minds more than down in the big cities. You don't own cats and let em' run around outside unless you want to feed the wildlife :>).
