Time for thoughtful debate has not been a hallmark of the 2017 General Assembly. We hope the urge to fast-track bills will ebb as lawmakers seek a new balance between gun ownership and public safety.
House Study Bill 133, proposed by the judiciary committee, is 41-pages. It amends and strikes several sections of the Iowa Code that relate to weapon permitting, gun ownership and criminal justice. The bill is so broad and, at times, convoluted that it cannot be fully explored in the space provided. As an example, pieces of code are amended in one section of the bill and, in a later section, struck completely and replaced with new text. |

Baloney.
All proposed laws that expand the right to arms and disembowel government regulations should be fast-tracked.
And the more such proposals are filed, the better. |
