Wow

For all of the doom and gloom, you'd think that gun control was inexorable and inevitable.

Of all the bills I mentioned here, only one appears, maybe, to be getting the governor's signature.  It's in the started really bad but got neutral as it was amended category.

HB 311 was looking at passing the house when it was "temporarily postponed, on second reading" on 06Mar20.  It's companion, SB 728, was transmitted to the house the same day as passed.  It's now on the special order calendar.

There's a lot of vital business in between this bill and passage, so it could just die on the vine.

The other started really bad but got neutral as it was amended bill: CS/HB 183 has been on the calendar since 07Feb20, but the Senate version SB 1524 has sat, un-looked at since 14Jan20.

Jan 14 was filing day, apparently, because just about every gun control (and one pro-gun) bill just says "Last action: 1/14/2020 (chamber) Introduced (tracking number)".

The "idiocy" of legally open carrying to protest in to the infringed right did not result in SB 634 making it into committee or in the house generating a companion bill.  I was promised that this would be passed!  I guess the idiots aren't as dumb as some people think they are.

The only good bill this session, HB 273, is getting the same consideration as all the horrid ones.  Languishing, ignored, since 14Jan20.
