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 |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" �Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
