Well, maybe a few kind words from forum members can make him a convert. Like they say, the difference between a liberal and a conservative is one mugging.

From my very limited experience State Reps don't understand kind words. They do understand money. This guy is an excop who should know better. Instead of trying to protect victims of crimes voted to enable criminals one more chance to steal from their victims. This guy deserves to get sued. and to be exposed as one who votes for criminals instead of the law abiding. It would be great justice if he got sued and lost that beautiful house he is building.

How ironic.

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.
