I assume you mean HB 915?

The constitution restrains government, and therefore repealing government criminal restrictions on that right must take priority if you are interested in enforcing a constituional right.

Sebastian,

The only “interference” or similarity between the two bills is that one section of one bill (HB 915) states that the particular section is not to be construed to restrict existing private property rights (in other words, possession of a firearms license, which under the section in question is an authorization to carry a firearm into “all areas of the state,” does not mean I am now authorized by law to carry all over your property). The other bill does not even deal with firearms licenses at all, but permits some people to lock a gun in their glove box in some private propery parking lots. The two really are not related. I hope that clears it up a little.

I know I always come across as an NRA basher because I always chime in on these types of issues…I’m not. I’m a life member and I acknowledge that the NRA does many, many good things and are very effective. But I also think that they tend to step on the smaller, state level groups for their own purposes and I will not defend them when they do so.

Not only that, but they seemingly refuse to even acknowledge the contributions of the smaller groups and, even worse, occasionally jump on the bandwagon after all the hard work is already done and then graciously accept credit for accomplishing the goal.

As a State level activist myself, I feel Georgia Carry’s pain and I won’t support the NRA’s actions blindly. Cooperation is not synonymous with supplication. If the NRA expects the support of the State level groups, the state level groups need to be assured of reciprocal support when needed. All too often, that support is in short supply.
