Arizona Senate approves four pro-gun bills

• House Bill 2339 would allow gun owners with concealed-carry permits to bring  weapons into government buildings, unless security measures- including armed  guards, metal detectors and gun lockers- are in place. The measure, by Rep.  Brenda Barton, R-Payson, excludes public K-12 schools, community colleges and  universities. Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed a similar bill last year.

• House Bill 2338 would allow authorities to charge a person who’s accused of  wresting a gun away from someone else with aggravated assault. Doing so is  already a felony offense. Proponents said it is a preventative measure in case a  criminal were to take the gun of someone using it in self-defense. Democrats  said the measure is a waste of time because it rehashes what’s already a crime.  The bill was also sponsored by Barton.

• House Bill 2517, sponsored by Rep. Steve Smith, R-Maricopa, would impose  fines on cities, towns and their lawmakers who enforce gun ordinances more  strictly than the state’s own laws. The bill would impose a civil penalty of up  to $5,000 on city and town governments that violate the statute. It would also  allow the state to sue individual government officials, such as city councilors,  and would prohibit them from using public funds to defend themselves in court.

• House Bill 2483  would ban cities, counties and towns from restricting the  shooting of guns on private property. The bill was sponsored by Rep. John  Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills.

Senators must still cast a roll-call vote on all bills.

Smart Gun Dumb Idea

Eric Holder explains how gun owners can enjoy their Second Amendment rights with “techno” guns costing over $1000 more each – never acknowledging that guns are used for defensive purposes millions of times each year.  Like it never happens.

The Washington Post has this piece on the concept to jack up gun prices so much, it will cause gun control – Washington style – because people will no longer be able to afford them.  Nothing new here.

Holder’s twisted logic is below:

Firearms Trade Association, Manufacturers’ Institute Seek Injunction to Stop Unworkable Microstamping Law

This from www.Outdoorwire.com

NEWTOWN, Conn. – The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) and the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute (SAAMI) have filed a motion for a preliminary injunction on behalf of their members against the State of California in Fresno Superior Court to prevent enforcement of the state’s microstamping law. The state statute enacted in 2007, but not made effective until May 2013, requires that all semiautomatic handguns sold in the state not already on the California approved handgun roster incorporate unproven and unreliable microstamping technology.
