Concealed issues

COLLEGE STATION, TX — Last week Student Senate approved a referendum to gauge the interest from the student body on the issue of concealed carry of firearms on campus, a referendum that has sparked a debate. The group "Texas A&M Students for Concealed Carry" has been representing the opinion to support concealed carry, but not much has been done to articulate the argument against and I thought it important to do so.

Despite the shift in power in the state legislature, it's apparently business as usual in Albany in 2011, at least in terms of anti-gun legislation. It's been noted previously that the legislation to mandate microstamping technology in semiautomatic pistols has been introduced in New York again this year. Now comes another ridiculous gun bill, S2994, which would require the mandatory registration of all firearms in the state -- for an annual fee.

CONCORD, N.H.—The House is voting this week on legislation that would effectively bar federal regulation of some firearms, accessories and ammunition made in New Hampshire. Under the bill, state or federal officials who enforced federal regulations of the weapons would be guilty of a crime.

There's nothing really new when it comes to guns. To the contrary, the extended magazine that Jared Loughner allegedly carried in his Glock 19 the day he is accused of having fatally shot six people outside Tucson and wounding 13 others, and that President Obama is likely to suggest banning in an upcoming speech, may be traced way back.

In the ongoing evolution of Wisconsin gun law, a Milwaukee County judge has ruled the state’s concealed carry statute unconstitutional as applied to a man who had an unloaded, encased gun under his car seat three days after he had been robbed at gunpoint in the same area of the city.

Montana Congressman Denny Rehberg today released the following statement after The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) formally delayed a request by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to implement new gun control regulations through “emergency” rulemaking procedures.

The rifles were relics from the Korean War, which are being sold by South Korea in an effort to raise money for its military. These rifles would be made available to the public as well as to museums and historical societies.
