Ladies and Gents,
I am used to the stupidity relating to city council meetings, I am used to the stupidity regarding protected classes such as those licensed by the state to conceal weapons for self protection. I am not used to the realities that are involved in the political games.
I support SB680 because it is the correct thing to support for MO and all citizens of this country.
I support HB1369 because it had made movement in the MO legislative process beyond previous versions and bills such as:
2011 version of HB1369
HB 841

In 2008 we has HB2546 which was nearly identical to ours, it went no where.
I could go back further, but it serves no purpose, the detractors are just that, nothing more and nothing less. I won't say I am not unhappy that they fathom not a clue what the public discourse can cause, but that is why indeed the other groups keep it 100% on the QT and I am not sure that we should not chalk it up as one of our worst mistakes, public discussion of any of it. You can't play the game when you have folks yappin about who do not even know the rules.
The ONLY regrets I have of the push the "we" indeed have is that we opted to have any discussions in public at all. This posting makes that clear and anyone seeking discussion or debate further needs to contact me directly. I am totally done with the BS and extra info involved, know only that I will indeed speak in support of PRO 2A legislation and I am done responding to conjecture or other fantastic claims about what the bills may or may not do.
I am sorry to my friends here on OCDO but I am behind in the newsletter, behind in personal duties and have no time left for petty whines and accusations. I am a stand up guy who has stood in the line of fire for many and will do so in the future, but it seems discussing it at any level is counter productive and I hereby give up.
I will no longer discuss the merits of either or the potential passage of either publicly and will only respond in private to parties that are interested.
