Davey Posted November 10, 2011 at 08:57 AM Share Posted November 10, 2011 at 08:57 AM What is gyro? Geico guyWhat are you living under? A rock?/Geico guy Heh, seriously though it's lamb meat all cooked up and served on a, I think, pita bread. Grilled onions, cucumber sauce. You know it's good when the onion gases rip through your nose and right into your medula oblongata. Nostrils and throat burn like you're in the middle of a chemical plant burning to the ground. Then the cool cucumber sauce pays a visit and cools it all down like you're swooshing and swishing down a snowy mountain side. Really tasty and totally bad for you. Also it's pronounced yeerow and not jiro. Oh, and hr822 is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drylok Posted November 11, 2011 at 09:11 AM Share Posted November 11, 2011 at 09:11 AM I know me too. Now this is a clean bill now but is it correct that when it gets over to the senate they could amend it and hook it onto some garbage legislation? Course if they do then doesn't it have to come back to the house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilphil Posted November 11, 2011 at 03:34 PM Share Posted November 11, 2011 at 03:34 PM I seriously doubt that it will see the light of day in the Senate. It will get buried in an unfriendly committee. And even if it did get passed by some miracle, does anybody really think BHO won't veto it in a heartbeat? Its only possible chance is to get attached to a bill he can't afford to kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XJCraver Posted November 11, 2011 at 06:03 PM Share Posted November 11, 2011 at 06:03 PM Maybe this is an ufounded concern, but could we discuss this: Here in Illinois, we're gaining traction, and support for RKBA, and specifically HB0148. What happens, if this reciprocity bill is passed before we get a carry bill here. I see it as another possible "excuse" for the legislators on the No side of things to vote against 148 ( since there is no reciprocity built in to that bill). I think this could hurt us here in Il, and bad, if it becomes law before we get RTC. After we get it, not so much. Thoughts??

soundguy Posted November 11, 2011 at 07:43 PM Share Posted November 11, 2011 at 07:43 PM Unfounded concern, is my thought. Both things will eventually happen. I don't think it matters which one comes first. Illinois will drag IRS feet without national recognition. If national recognition comes first, Illinois will continue to be the unprotected paradise it currently is. That can only help us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, we can simply point to our neighboring states (IA, IN) that honor ALL RTC permits from ALL states. They haven't had any problems there. Why should we expect problems here?

PPK Posted November 12, 2011 at 01:27 PM Share Posted November 12, 2011 at 01:27 PM What is gyro? Slices of meatlike substance from unknown source served on pita bread with sliced tomatos, onions, and sour cream. Best served with a lot of beer so you don't worry to much about where the meatlike substance came from. They're pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think you have to worry to much about a veto. I am guessing this bill will suffer the same fate as similar legislation has for many years. It would be interesting though if NYC had to start honoring permits from outside of NYC. My personal opinion is this bill is more about offering up red meat to the faithful than a serious attempt at legislation. But it gets a little closer every time. It may eventually go over the top.

[#4: Would allow individuals with Concealed Carry Permits who are residents of a state or jurisdiction with Conceal Carry Permits to travel through, or maintain their permit in, a state or jurisdiction without Concealed Carry Permits. Would allow citizens of a state or jurisdiction without Concealed Carry Permits to lawfully obtain a Conceal Carry Permit from another state and maintain that permit in their state of residence.]After a couple of reads... I like this one. The Illinois clause? I can't imagine how it would work in big cities with home rule. Seems to have been proposed by our own Timothy Johnson. A backwards way to bring CC to Illinois. [#2: Would require a person provide at least 24 hours notice to a law enforcement officer of the State of the intention to possess or carry a concealed handgun in the State] Sounds like a call to the state police before you travel... From a Texas Democrat. I could live without this one. All LE jurisdictions COULD just presume that everyone with a lawful permit would make use of it all the time...

It wouldn't be fair for the whole country to lose national carry just because we can't get carry passed here.
