1. Wow. Guns at polling places. No potential for trouble THERE.

[ileus]

2. If OC is allowed it should help end intimidation at the polls.

[msongs]

3. exactly, EVERY elementary school kid should carry a gun as should every pre schooler as well nt

[gejohnston]

4. besides federal law

on minors in possession, did you have a valid point to make?

[Clames]

6. I think they were demonstrating...

...one of the hysterical argument points of the anti-gun crowd. Doesn't need to make sense or have a basis in reality.

[Callisto32]

5. FWOOSH!

19. +1 ;) n/t

7. And where was that ever suggested?

Only by the anti-gun zealots.

9. I really hope the missing sarcasm tag was just an oversight.

> exactly, EVERY elementary school kid should carry a gun as should every pre schooler as well

10. Not with that habitual drive-by-hyperbole poster. n/t

11. I work on a college campus.

Guns are prohibited on campus, but this also includes locked in your private vehicle in a parking lot or garage.

Thus, I'm restricted to being a weekend "toter"...

12. Maybe I should have said safer living...

[Hoyt]

13. Why would you refer to right wing hate mongers as "friends?" That is who is behind the bill.

Why should guns be allowed in those places and not nuclear plants, prisons, court rooms, etc.

[ileus]

14. Our friends are those that stand to gain freedom; the citizens of GA

And like you I don't see a problem with legal citizens being armed in any of the places you mention, why should people volunteer to be vulnerable to make others "feel" safe. I suppose they just didn't want to push the limits any...

[oneshooter]

15. So you advocate for concealed weapon in court rooms, nuclear power plants,

prisons, ect.

That is quite an about face for you. Can we quote you on this?

16. Maybe he's becoming more progressive...

He could be moving to the more progressive end of the human rights spectrum. Even without the 2A guarantee, the firearm equalizes the human beings ability to survive. Life Safety should be progressive trait all of us should embrace.

20. "Why should guns be allowed in those places and not nuclear plants, prisons, court rooms..."

They are. Nuclear power stations are staffed with armed guards. Prisons are staffed with armed guards. Court rooms are staffed with armed guards.

17. I live in Georgia and I thank you for your support.

My state senator (a Democrat) has a license to carry concealed and will likely support this bill if it crosses over from the house.

18. Good luck my friend...
