Count me as one STRONGLY opposed to this bill. For those who say this will forward the goal of gaining the same access for all CHL'ers, I disagree. Once the 'ruling class' has theirs, what is the incentive to extend that to the rest of us 'little people'? As was mentioned about IL, the polly-tic-ians see no need for people to carry because they're nice and safe.

Remember 'Ma' Richards? She vetoed a CHL bill years ago. After doing so, she was pretty soundly defeated. And one thing a lot of folks pointed to (myself included) was that she was fully protected by an armed DPS detail, while the rest of us 'little people' had to fend for ourselves. But she stated she saw no 'need' for it. Of course she didn't. She was covered. Rest of us, not so much.

And for myself, I'm not overly worried about being in a place like Reliant. However, getting from my car in to Reliant (or whatever venue) is another matter. Also, this past weekend I went to a Little League game. One field was NOT in a nice neighborhood. Gang banger all around the place. Not all 'organized sporting events' are at places like Reliant or JerryWorld.
