Ok, we disagree. The question... are you satisfied with the patch work of OC and NO OC?
Would you go aqlong with CCW permit to OC or just leave things as they are?
Either way, nothing is going to happen any time soon. Constitutional carry is soemthing we can dream about but I don't see that anytime soon either.
I believe the answer is the same as the many 2A groups in Missouri use. The members of the boards of the various 2A groups get together and come up with a plan for the up coming legislative session and present a unified front. Trust me, they really do this. They discourage others from interfering but suggest letters, emails, direct contact with "your" elected officials to encoiurage passage of the agreed legislative action.
That is the way it is done in Missouri, trust me. So, if we (OC'ers) want to pursue a course of action "we" best stop disagreeing here and get our collective acts together to get a legislative inititive by way of power in numbers and lobby efforts. The pro-2A groups represent tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions every year...TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS That is a big influence. Yes money matters in Jefferson City, like it, believe it or not. We need to get organized if we are to accomplish anything. I have already expressed an interest in running for the Board of the MSSA. "WE" need to join these 2A groups and vote in the meetings if "we" are ever going to really make a difference. Join MSSA, join GCLS, join GOA.... If you don't know what these groups are you need to learn. Google will work.
It's political, people power can make a difference, but we need a uniformed front and people!
Thats why a "picinic" or some get togethers especially here in the eastern part of the State is important. In the KC area they have numbers, participants. The two sides of the State can work together and be a force for 2A rights, and a collective approach and using the large and influential exisiting 2A groups can help. Small numbers, no lobby effort and disagreement will result in NO changes to the OC laws in Missouri.
OK, LOCK AND LOAD, LET ME HAVE IT WITH BOTH BARRELS AND A BAYONET CHARGE!
