Have you submitted any reply to this GG?

I sent in a reply; but hasn't been printed.

But I notice that they printed the Telegraph's resident morons' (Gadbois) response. :evil:

You'd think those crazy gun nuts would just forget about passing this dangerous bill because, according to the editorial:

"...Georgians already have the most lenient gun laws in the country as far weapons in private vehicles are concerned..."

What more do those people want? The right to carry a gun to a public gathering or on MARTA or something equally dangerous to the peaceful members of society?

Please. Somebody!

Think of the children!

Protect them from those terrible Gun Crazies before it's too late!

My posted response.

Do you honestly think that a criminal cares if it's legal to hide a firearm in a car? Do you think that he/she cares if it illegal to carry a firearm into a restarant that serves beer? do you think they care if it's illegal to carry on Marta? A criminal is going to do what they want, regardless of the law. Restricting where law abiding citizens can carry a firearm do nothing more than create 'victin disarmament zones', where criminals know that can find easy targets. Georgia needs to pass sweeping gun law reforms, to take away restrictions. By doing that and allowing law abiding citizens to carry firearms without restriction, will give criminals second thouhts about committing crimes against a possibly armed citizen.
Laws that restrict where a weapon can be carried do nothing to prevent crime. All they do is restrict the ability of a law abiding citizen to protect themselves and their families.Criminals don't care about the laws.
