Last week the Iowa House passed – on pretty much party lines – House File 756, which makes several changes to Iowa’s gun laws.
Among many other things, HF756 gets rid of mandatory background checks for private handgun sales and the requirement that Iowans obtain a “permit to carry” from their local sheriff’s office in order to legally carry a loaded handgun in public.
These two changes to current law will result in way fewer background checks and thus more guns in the hands of people who are legally barred from possessing guns, and also more guns in the hands of people who have zero knowledge about Iowa’s laws governing legal justification – which is why I voted no on the bill. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
