Ellis threatening to fillibuster now.

Here we go...

Did she say what it was? Chas. Charles, I think she wants to increase punishments for those who cannot produce a CHL if asked by LEOs under circumstances which the Huffines amendment would permit. Now that's just fantastic. :banghead: You forget your wallet and now it's going to be a felony? (It's ...

Chas.

Not yet, but I would think that it will be raising unlicensed OC to a class 3 felony or something.

Why won't they just vote the amendment down if everyone is opposed to it? I think they all just want to humiliate Huffines. This is simply a moderate fighting a conservative position.

Licensed? 0. Unlicensed? Many.

He's clearly outclassed. Not sure how he even got elected at this point - public speaking is not his strong suit. Needs to go back to selling cars and developing real estate and leave the politics for the people who know what they are talking about. Or at least TALKED to people "in the know&qu...

Rhino convention underway Yep. Disappointing. This is purely Huffines fault. Again, there's a reason the Dutton Amendment was stripped in committee and Huffines is so full of himself he won't pull down this killer amendment. Chas. :iagree: Is there any reason behind the scenes that would warrant th...

It's probably Stickland heckling and trying to defend Huffines.
