I thought I was getting auto-dialer call with just a recorded message, however the recorded message asked me to stay on the line as a conference call with Chris Cox and Ken Cuccinelli was about to begin. NRA members were prompted to press *3 on their phone if they would like to speak with either gentlemen and they would be placed in queue to speak. I waited about 20 minutes into the call to indicate that I had a question, which was going to be "As attorney general what will you do to force state parks and forests to comply with the pre-emption of gun carry laws at the state level? Further what will you do to ensure that state funded colleges are forced to remove their restrictions on gun carry for students, staff and faculty?" After a while of waiting and listening to the various callers an operator beeped in and asked for my name, hometown and question and then noted that I would be put in queue to ask my question.
My time for question never did come around before the phone call ended at the hour mark. Listening to this call, however, was quite discouraging since so many of the questions asked were in regard to mis-information and thoughts on gun law restrictions that just don't exist. Anyone with a bit of time and curiosity could find the answers to some of the questions if only they'd take a moment to look. I guess this is my queue to do more to ensure people know about what laws and restrictions are real and what freedoms they do have to practice every day.
