You have any insight as to the reason for this delay?? Public outcry?? Shoring up support?? He grew a brain?? Other?? No doubt it was because I e-mailed Paymar and told him he should be ashamed of himself and requested he withdraw the bill. I really did!

Ha! Thanks. It's even more likely he will try to get it into a more friendly committee or wait for a more opportune time like right after a cop or school shooting. But hey, maybe it helped. Hank.

Yes, thanks to all who have kept us updated on this pathetic attempt at legislating away our gun rights.
This is just a veiled attempt at harrassing lawful gun owners, which Paymar has his panties all in a twist about, the same way he's demonized smokers, another one of his pet peeves (Paymar is a board member on ClearWay, the anti-smoking PR firm feeding from the public trough).
Please let us know if and when further action is dictated.

In my mail.
Quote: Word was they got about 1,000 emails from us and that scared the crap out of them.
Gun Owners got an atta boy from at least one legislator for being more organized than CSM.

My most recent calls, once I mentioned the committee, were greated with, "your calling about HF953 Paymar's bill, right?"
The lines musta been flooded.

I'm almost -- almost -- hoping we have to do that again.
