Gun Control Summit

In fact, NVFAC's VP Legislative Division, Randy Mackie, WAS THERE representing NVFAC.

I learned he was NOT ALLOWED to speak. Apparently ONLY the invited panel was allowed to speak. This in spite of the fact NVFAC contacted the show well prior, but was not invited nor allowed to speak.

I have no idea why Bob Irwin would tell you that. (Bear in mind he did resign.)

I have no idea why either. There was an open mic for the audience (many folks came and asked questions or had their say). Why didn't he stand up to the public comment microphone and say his piece?

More importantly will you, or the NVFAC, be able to stop SB369? Maybe I should start a new thread on this.

That I can't answer. Ask him.

I do think that with enough citizen input we can defeat SB-396. We must work in concert and DEFEAT SB-396.

That is an unknown.

If No One speaks against it, there isn't much chance to stop it. EVERYONE should be speaking against it. The NVFAC, the NRA, the GOA, etc; AND each of us, including you, Ken.


Whether any of that effort will 'be able to stop SB369' remains to be seen. Working against it, alone or as a group, is no guarantee. Failure to work against it, alone or as a group, makes its defeat less likely.

A), unless he does something, he's not "representing" ANYBODY.

B), unless he was chained to his chair, he had the same opportunity to speak that several of us were able to use, to counter the lies of the teleconferenced guests.
