What's funny is that once you get a permit in NY, the state is suddenly one of the least restrictive. There are virtually no carry restrictions beyond schools and government buildings, no law whatsoever regarding bars/restaurants/alcohol and "No Guns" signs carry no force of law.

Also while, nationally Washington is turned blue by the three county sized tail wagging the Statewide dog, in the state legislature WA is far less polarized. Even without that, I live in that three county area, and can drive to probably a dozen gun stores, and a half dozen public shooting ranges in an hour or less. I can think of four gun stores, and two ranges that are merely 10ish minutes and a neighborhood or two away. |

Brady list
Hal, thanks for the link http://www.bradycampaign.org/sites/d...d_Rankings.pdf to the Brady list.
What is quite suboptimal is the my home state, California, is rated number 1! While the state of my birth, Oklahoma, is rated in a Tie for 47th! Maybe it is time to get back to my roots!

When selective enforcement became impossible, it left TX with unusually strict prohibitions against carrying handguns when originally there was no intent to disarm anyone but the freed slaves. Ugly and ironic all at once. At any rate, a lot of that mess has been remedied now--one remaining remnant is that open carry still isn't legal.
