Peter Hamm'ing it up...

He claims that death row inmates in Florida have CCW permits.

Peter Hamm, a spokesman for the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence said his organization is not anti-gun, but it opposes the bill because of its impact on states.

"There are already too many states that have too weak a system of approving people for concealed-carry permits," Hamm said. "I don't think the majority of states want to rely on the systems of other states to let someone carry a loaded, concealed handgun across state borders."

For instance, Florida's standards are so low that some death-row inmates there have permits, he said.

I'ld love for some corroboration on that one being that one becomes ineligible for numerous offenses. In order for it to be true, that means the "Only Ones" are failing to enforce the laws.

This is in response to a new federal bill w/ 33 co-sponsors making universal reciprocity for state issued CCW. Call your Reps to sign on along w. HR 4900 if they haven't already.
