[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1493493, member: 5151"] The problem with starting with a poorly written bill that is easy to sell as being "the right solution" is that it won't get fixed in the legislative process. Politics 101. It would have been much, much smarter to encourage various legislators to amend a "sacrificial lamb" type of bill. That seemed to almost work last year, by the way, but there was the given of a Governor's veto. Might want to check into an FBI study or two, as well as the experiences of other states that already have open carry. [URL="http://www.altenhofel.com/blog/another-oklahoma-2a-group-comes-out-against-open-carry"]That's basically what I said this morning[/URL]. This. Absolutely correct. It's also why I mean it when I say that I have no faith in any 2A organization to fight for 2A rights any more. Between the NRA and GOA's praising of Heller and McDonald and this year's open carry fumbling, I see no reason to support any "Second Amendment" organization. [/QUOTE]
