I'm glad you got the vote. I lost my connection right in the middle of the vote. :banghead:

The house adopted the conference report last night, so it should be pretty much done.

Damn, Mr. Pyne! It seems that your connection always cuts out the good part!

It seems that whenever I click on the audio link, they are just starting on the bill that I want to hear!

It's like the government knows exactly what I am thinking... :uhoh:

Due to the fact that 1SHB357 is going to the governor's desk, who if I remember correctly is in support of such a bill, and due to the fact that I also support this bill, I would like to express how happy I am that such a thing is occuring with a rather lengthy monologue, where I could have placed a much shorter dancing banana, that would have gotten my point across.

I am doing this due to the fact thata dancing banana to express this would be considered post whoring by some members of this forum.

It should be noted that I have already expressed my concerns related to this bill in this thread http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum52/22552.html

It should be also noted that I showed that I was in support of this bill.

I'm disappointed by the exception made for churches. I wouldhave hoped that the pre-emption would apply to churches, that way at least my rifle wouldn't be too far away while I'm at church.

Well, as long as you are not employed by a religious organization, you have nothing to worry about.

There is no law that prohibits you from keeping a rifle in your car at church.

This bill is for the parking lots that employees park on, not patrons.

Dang, I can't believe I missed that. For some reason my mind completely forgot the original intent of this bill.

Still would like to see the church exemption removed. But for different reasons now that I've had my brain restarted.

The state web site now shows 2S SB78 as enrolled.:celebrate

If the governor doesn't veto it, it becomes law on May 11, 2009.
