KANSAS PASSES "SHALL-ISSUE" RIGHT-TO-CARRY!

On Thursday, Governor Sebelius' (D) veto of NRA-backed Right-to-Carry
legislation, Senate Bill 418, "The Personal and Family Protection
Act," was overridden!

"After 12 years, it took a collective, bi-partisan effort to win this
fight," NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox declared. Kansas now
joins 38 other states that respect the Right-to-Carry and allow their
citizens to carry a firearm for personal protection.

The Kansas State Senate voted 30 to 10 to override Governor Sebelius'
veto of the Right-to-Carry legislation. Less than a day later, the
Kansas House of Representatives voted 91 to 33 to sustain the
override.

Cox continued, "We want to recognize the steadfast support of several
state leaders. Without their hard work, Kansans would still be
deprived of this valuable law. Senator Phil Journey (R-26),
Representative Candy Ruff (D-40), and Representative Gary Hayzlett
(R-122), worked tirelessly on this measure and we thank them."

"As always, we appreciate the commitment and participation of our
members in Kansas for helping pass this legislation and helping
override the Governor's veto of this law that will serve to protect
law-abiding Kansans and their families," concluded Cox.

the simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences."
