Prozanski Schedules Gun Registration Bill

Fourdays afterhe informed "Ceasefire Oregon" that he wouldbe hearinghis gunregistration bill, SB 1551, FloydProzanski has officially scheduled the bill so the publiccannow see what he sharedwiththe anti-rights extremists last Friday.

The billwill be heardon Thursday, Feb 6, at 8AM in HearingRoom 50, which is inthe Capitol basement.Floyd has invited NRA totestify.OFF was not invited; however, NRA has offered us a place ontheir panel.

There are stillunconfirmed rumors of "celebrity"anti-gunners comingin from out of town.

If youare planningto come and testify, keep the following inmind:

While you maysubmit written testimony, you shouldbe ready tobe flexible onwhat yousay. It is very likely that amendments will be proposedwhich can changethe makeupof the bill.

Here are some points about the bill:

(Be preparedto respondtoa moving target.)

The billoutlaws private transfers to people you have knownyour whole life.

The billis a de factoregistration scheme.Without registrationthe billhas no meaning.

There is noreasonto demand the serialnumberof the gunbeing transferred if this is not a registrationscheme.

Inspite of what Floyd says, people HAVE hadtheirguns confiscatedIN OREGON, withNO LEGAL JUSTIFICATION, because of backgroundchecks.

As written, this billallows you togive a gunto your nephew but forbidshim from givingit back without police permission!

Underthe billyoucould give a guntoyour gaypartner, but you couldnot give a guntoperson of the opposite sex withwhom you lived but were not legally marriedto.

You couldgive a gun toyourson-in-law, but he cannot give it back without permission from the state.

You can give a gunto your nephew but he can't give it back without permission from the state.

If youhave a range, trainingfacility, orgun clubthat allows people touse guns you own, as part of a class youcharge for, youhave "leased" a gunand now must runa background check andtransfer the gunto them before they can use the gun inthe class.(Assumingthe check is even completedbefore the class is over.)

Theythen must "transfer"the gunback to you at the endof the class.

The billhas no provisionforallowing a transferif the OSP can't complete a backgroundcheck.

(The law allows dealers to transferinthree days but does NOTallow private parties to transferin3days if OSP can't complete the check.)

Unlike the present system, any transferwillrequire that you have and retain transferforms only available from theState Police.

If youplan tosubmit materials tothe committee, please send a PDF to [email protected] by noontomorrow. Forprinted documents, please provide 10papercopies tothe assistant when you testify.

It's a train wreck, folks. Let's get out there.

Forward to your friends
 
OFF Facbook update
GUESS WHO IS COMING TO OREGON TO TESTIFY FOR GUN CONTROL?

Gabby Giffords husband (and "assault weapon buyer) Mark Kelly!

The following is from "Americans for Responsible Solutions:

We've already been informed that if you use their "click to call" site and SUPPORT gun rights, you will be cut off.

____________________________________________________

What’s happening now in Oregon is the real deal: a credible chance to expand background checks and make Oregon communities safer from gun violence.

That’s why Mark’s going to Oregon this week to testify before the state legislature on behalf of the proposed background checks bill.

Thanks to supporters like you, Mark will be able to tell lawmakers that our petition urging universal background checks has garnered more than a thousand signatures. That’s a fantastic start, but we need to do everything possible right now to make sure Oregon legislators hear our message.

Before Mark testifies Thursday, call an undecided Oregon legislator and ask him or her to support background checks.

Call 503-395-2245, or you can use the Americans for Responsible Solutions click-to-call tool and we'll make the connection for you:

Americans for Responsible Solutions | Call Oregon lawmakers

During his testimony, Mark will make the case that responsible gun ownership includes keeping guns out of the hands of criminals and the dangerously mentally ill. Your call now will help amplify that message.

All the best,

Pia Carusone
Executive Director, Americans for Responsible Solutions
