UPDATE - New Gun Carry Bill - HB 875

[BriarPatch99]

If you look Chuck Sims voting record ... you'd see he has never been a strong supporter of gun rights ...

I like Chuck as a person ... known him most of my life... he comes from a fine family... but he does not do well with gun rights ... he is getting "bombed" pretty heavy on the local Facebook page also... he is a lame "duck" as he know he is gone anyway ...

Antis are slamming Senate committee with calls and emails to destroy this bill.

Please call and email the Senate committee if you have not done yet.

Thanks a lot

Perhaps his staff got all the information they needed from the subject line. I received this since I requested delivery confirmation:

Same here. My one auto reply was from Curt Thompson, probably same as yours.

Thanks K. Emails sent, no reply .

 

[AM1]

I would not worry about replies at this point. they are being bombarded by calls, faxes, emails and letters, both for and against. They can't possibly respond to all of them. I assure you that yours is counted. They keep a tally of all pro/against responses. THAT'S what they look at. Make sure our stack is higher than the anti's

 

[groundhawg]

Another week and no action

Another week and no action

Starting to feel like last year isn't it?

What is the deadline to get this thing voted on by the Senate?

Isn't this the same committee where it died last year? I know it had campus carry in it last year so it isn't the same bill but...

I'm not sure how many days left till sine die but there is still time.

Last year we did not have NRA and Georgia Baptist Convention with us to help, this year NRA and Georgia Baptist Convention supporting this bill, also collage carry was the issue last year's bill to fail, which is not included this bill.

 

[Khondker]

There are number of "Anti Gun Control Organization" (both GA based and national) are contacting Senators, Lt. Governor and Governor and telling them to kill HB 875.

Next few weeks will be very crucial.

Staton wants to kill the deal!

http://politics.blog.ajc.com/2014/03...-campus-carry/

Good read on Sen. Staton bragging about how he killed the gun bill SB101 in 2013 and will try to do the same for HB875 this year.

According to Wikipedia(yea I know) Staton owns 14 radio stations, an online community newspaper and a TV station. Maybe a boycott of his advertisers should be considered.
