[QUOTE="Peacemaker, post: 1141590, member: 12095"] I just sent this mail to my senator. I don't know if he will have time to read it before the vote if it happens so I called his office also. Consider sending a letter like this to your rep and senator if you haven't already. You are free to use my example if you want. Senator Bass, I am a constituent who is closely following HB 3354 (open carry). I noticed you voted for it before the governor vetoed it. I am aware that it could be coming back for reconsideration soon to override the veto. I urge you on behalf of many colleagues and friends who overwhelmingly support this bill and myself to vote to override the governor's veto. I think the governor has been misled by his advisers. He claims that this would lead to brandishing but law abiding gun owners who carry concealed are not suddenly going to start brandishing weapons just because they can take their jacket off. He claims that police officers can't tell the good guys from the bad guys if open carry passes. I think his logic is flawed in that bad guys carry concealed just like the good guys do now. The open carry bill is not going encourage criminals to openly display their illegally carried weapons. Currently, over 40 other states have an open carry law and they don't have these problems the governor is trying to say would occur if we pass open carry. Please support the majority of your constituents who want this veto overturned. Thanks for your time, <Name> <Address> [/QUOTE]
