The Concealed Carry Subcommittee must be pressured to:
* pass H.B.225 instead of H.B.274, or
* amend H.B.274 by stripping out ALL gun control provisions, thus making it a Vermont-style bill.
1. Write, call, email and fax State Rep.Ann Womer Benjamin and each member of the Concealed Carry Subcommittee.
2. Write, call, email and fax each member of the House Civil and Commercial Law Committee and the House Criminal Justice Committee.

This is the web address for the Arizona recall of Senator J. McCain.
Welcome to the home page of the Recall John McCain Committee, Founded June 5, 2001.
“John McCain has become increasingly obsessed with advancing his own personal agenda contrary to President Bush, party leaders and rank and file Republicans. In his insatiable desire for massive national media attention, he has all but forgotten the people of Arizona who elected him. The last straw was his vote against final passage of President Bush’s tax cut plan, the very center piece of George W. Bush’s successful presidential campaign. John McCain’s judgment is no longer acceptable. He is continually sponsoring or cosponsoring legislation that will infringe upon the rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution.” |

A new study by John Lott and William Landes examines the deterrent effects of various laws on mass public shootings. They conclude that concealed handgun carry laws reduce the number of people killed or wounded from mass public shootings as many attackers are either deterred from attacking or when attacks do occur they are stopped before the police arrive.
Concealed handgun laws reduce these attacks by almost 70%! |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
