My bet is that Tibbs voted yes to be on record as supporting the 2nd amendment but like in the house open carry bill behind the scenes she would work to keep the bill drowned in the bureaucratic process.
We peasants do the leg work for them. Don't you know that's how journalism works nowadays?

+1, although she's term limited at the end of this term so I'm not sure that was the whole reason. I wouldn't put it past her though.
Or the names of people in the committee who passed it last time, if it's the same general group of people.
That is what I took from the amendment language although I think there was some other things in the bill that pertained to carrying while sporting and hunting, but essentially, yes.
So as far as open carry, this was the last hope or no? No other favorable bills in the works? 129 is officially deceased and buried 6 feet under?
hrdware from OpenCarry.org said:
Generally the order of things, is to vote on the amendment, then vote on the bill as amended. There was not call for that in this case because the amendment was a committee amendment, not an individual amendment to the bill.
In any case, SB129 is not quite dead yet.
The Public Safety Committee vote was on Do Pass As Amended. This vote failed, which means the committee retains possession of the bill. Had the committee voted on a Do Not Pass, then SB129 would have died.
This means that the committee can still work on the bill and take it up again next week. If the bill does not come out of the committee next week, a discharge petition may be filed to bring it to the House Floor. This discharge petition must be signed by 2/3 of the representatives (68 for an exact number).
If the Public Safety Committee votes Do Not Pass next week the bill is dead. If it doesn't get out of committee then a discharge petition (likely to fail again) would bring it to the floor.
