Governor Deal Sitting on HB60

I'm afraid that if the part below was removed it would've been signed already! He has law enforcement telling him that if he signs it they'll lose a very important tool that they now have! I say BS!
Just watch the video that I've linked below and you will see Putnam County Sheriff Howard Sills saying as much!

"a person carrying a weapon shall not be subject to detention for the sole purpose of investigating whether such a person has a weapons carry license."

Exactly!

No where in current law is LE allowed/permitted to stop anyone for carrying a firearm. LE needs a probable cause that a crime is or may be committed. Carrying a firearm doesn't qualify.

Lets be honest about Sheriff Sills. He has been and wants to continue stopping and frisking minorities and other people he wants hassled. He uses the imaginary of sighting of a gun for cause.

I think a perfect test for this would be sending someone out walking down the street, with say a sling-less mosin nagant... to make it more interesting, they shouldn't have a GWL. I personally would like to see what happens...

help me to understand why he needs to sign it? from my understanding, without action it will go into effect july 1? i think what needs to be impressed on deal is to not veto. that's the only issue. politically, i think his people think he'll lose more than he gains by signing. pro 2A folks might be pissed at him for not signing, but if it's law come election time, only the very hardcore will hold it against him. but by signing he energizes gun control folks and fuels a 2A debate in the next election cycle that doesn't need to be there. i think this is a case where folks shouldn't be up in arms about process, but focus on results. if come july 2 it's not law, then there's a problem. i think deal is aware of that. 'nuff said.

I agree, with the exception of even mentioning veto. If he sees veto mentioned enough, regardless of the context, then it's in his thoughts. I say keep flooding him with pro 2A speech and our support of HB60. Leave off any mention of veto. Just my 2 cents.

the veto thing im not worried about. its just very deceitful to claim to be a suppoert of the 2nd amendment and not sign a pro 2nd amendment bill into law at the first chance he gets

kinda like a no brainer. his hesitation makes me think he is full of ****. further down the line he may see the need to "compromise" or push for "common sense gun legislation"

shall not be infringed is pretty specific and a true supporter of american liberties shouldnt wait to see what is best for him. **** him and his career politics, he is a fence riding douchelord trying to garnish as much support from anywhere as possible

Hence, the reason I describe our Governor as a turd.

And I agree. Unfortunately for us the only other realistic option we will have in November will be a bigger turd.

Every time you vote one out and replace it with another, it just puts one more on the government retirement teat. So in all reality, it just cost the tax payers more money and nothing gets any better.

I wonder what would be the chances of voting to just do away with them all together?
