Support your local Militia! If none in town start one!
The problem with this is it is a violation of the 10th amendment to the Constitution. How can you like one usurpation of you rights over another?
Time better spent killing the Second amendment infringements already on the books.

How can you like one usurpation of you rights over another? Time better spent killing the Second amendment infringements already on the books. You are correct, but pretty much every state when they joined the 'union', came under the Constitution and took on the Bill of Rights along with it... They therefore should not be able to violate the Second Amendment as they now do, 10th amendment or not. The Right to Self-Defense is a Natural or God-Given Right, and unlike ANY of the other Rights noted in the 'Bill of Rights', it shall not be infringed.

As many of us have stated over and over, a federally mandated 'National Reciprocity' is NOT the way to do it... Decentralize The Gun Lawsby Tyler Durden, Aug 17, 2017 7:45 PM, Authored by Ryan McMaken via The Mises Institute, With a Republican in the White House, the anti-gun-control lobby smells a bit of blood in the water. Now is the time, they suggest, to pass national gun-licensing reciprocity laws forcing gun-restrictive states to recognize permits issued by gun-permissive states. Writing in The Hill, Tim Schmidt sums it up: It is time for there to be national reciprocity for concealed carry permits, instead of the patchwork of laws governing reciprocity that vary by state. Virginia, where the [recent shooting of Congressman Steve Scalise] happened, has reciprocity for some states’ concealed carry permits, but if members would have brought their guns back and forth from D.C., they would have been breaking the law. It should never be a crime to be responsibly prepared to defend yourself in any possible situation.
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) and Rep. Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) have introduced the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, which would allow legal gun owners and concealed carry permit holders nationwide to responsibly arm themselves no matter where they are.
The way this is phrased sounds nice and totally unobjectionable: this bill sounds like it's just saying people should be left alone. The problem, however, is that the drive for mandated reciprocity is essentially a drive to increase federal involvement and federal control in the realm of gun policy. www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-17/decentralize-gun-laws

With Reciprocity/FixNICS Bill, NRA Makes Concession on ‘Background Checks’ It Can’t Walk Backby David Codrea, December 7, 2017 I spent a good part of yesterday afternoon watching House proceedings on C-SPAN for the national concealed carry reciprocity/”Fix NICS” combination bill. It passed 231 to 198 and now goes on to the Senate. It’s always interesting to watch the debates, if for no other reason than to see the hypocrisy and conflation that anti-gun Democrats indulge in. Standing out for me were the number of objections that had nothing to do with concealed carriers, except maybe as further evidence that the massacres being recounted conveniently occurred where no armed citizens were present. It was also interesting to watch Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee take a rare break from blaming law enforcement for the ills that plague her constituents so that she could feign concern for the welfare of cops. Not to be outdone, Rep. Val Demings also played on that theme, conveniently not mentioning how she had threatened to sue a website for publicizing she was censured for having her department-issued gun and ammunition stolen back when she was chief of the Orlando PD. I think those who believe in the right to keep and bear arms can all agree that laws that forbid the carrying them are infringements. It’s also obvious that those infringements happened incrementally, and that realistically, rolling them back via the political and judicial remedies designed into the Constitution is going to be a process. What I’m not going to get into here, except for briefly mentioning them, are all the arguments pro and con about the approach of this bill. You can read those in plenty of places, starting here, which provides a pretty good summary of all sides. I’d instead like to address something fewer people are talking about, and that’s the spirited defense for “FixNICS” being offered by the National Rifle Association, the National Shooting Sports Foundation, and the “pro-gun” politicians defending the need to have the bill, and for that matter, an undelegated NICS prior restraint power the government has created for itself (a whole ‘nother argument). www.oathkeepers.org/reciprocityfixnics-bill-nra-makes-concession-background-checks-cant-walk-back/

Most know my stand on National Reciprocity, NOT a big fan.
Saying that, popular legislation has been passed out of committee and should get an up or down vote. But, yet again, here we have the REPUBLICANS standing in the way of the legislation as they push their own personal agenda's over the top of the people's business... and from the Republican base? (crickets chirping).
Let's get some movement going.

Well, at least you KNOW where this oath breaking POS dirtbags loyalties lie... NYPD Commissioner: ‘Insanity’ to Allow National Concealed Carry for Law-Abiding Citizensby AWR Hawkins, 13 Feb 2018 New York Police Department commissioner James O’Neill says it is “insanity” to allow national concealed carry reciprocity for law-abiding citizens. He suggested more guns will only lead to more violence, although a 2012 Congressional Research Service study showed that a massive increase in private gun ownership–from 192 million firearms in 1994 to 310 million firearms in 2009–correlated with sharp drops in crime. Moreover, the Crime Prevention Research Center (CRPC) has shown that concealed carry permit holders are among the most law-abiding of law-abiding citizens. To highlight how just how law-abiding concealed carriers are CPRC juxtaposed crimes by police versus crimes by concealed carry permit holders. They used Texas permit holders as their sample. CPRC showed that from January 1, 2005, through December 31, 2007, the yearly rate of misdemeanors and felonies by full-time police officers was .102 percent. On the other hand, the yearly rate for Texas’ concealed carry permit holders in the year 2015–the year campus carry was signed into law in that state–was .0102 percent. Yet O’Neill told “60 Minutes” that adopting national concealed carry reciprocity is “insanity.” He said, “Right now we– we have a good idea of– of who’s carrying guns. If this law passes, the– all bets are off. Anybody can come into New York City from any state and– and carry a weapon.” www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/02/13/nypd-commissioner-insanity-allow-national-concealed-carry-law-abiding-citizens/
In your face scumbag...
