Right-to-Carry Under Attack in the Granite State!

Monday, March 12, 2007

 

Please Contact Your State Legislators Today!

Senate Bill 44, sponsored by State Senator Peter Burling (D-5), and State Representatives Lee Hammond (D-Grafton 11) and John Tholl (R-Coos 2), seeks to do the following:

1.) Make it easier for the issuing authority to deny a right-to-carry license;

2.) Make it much more difficult for anyone who challenged a licensing denial in court to be awarded attorney fees and court costs, even if the issuing authority is found to have violated the licensing law;
   
3.) Removes the personal liability of the issuing authority, making taxpayers foot the bill, even for gross negligence or malice on the part of the authority, and;
   
4.) Allows any group or individual to be arbitrarily designated as a "terrorist organization” based on innuendo and hearsay (without due process).

 

MAKE NO MISTAKE:
THIS IS A BACKDOOR ASSAULT ON YOUR RIGHT-TO-CARRY
IN NEW HAMPSHIRE!


The Senate Judiciary Committee has scheduled SB44 for a hearing on Thursday, March 15 at 9:00 a.m. in State House Room 103.  This is the first anti-gun measure to come before the committee this year, so your attendance is important!

Gun Owners of New Hampshire will have s
huttle service from the Everett Arena (15 Loudon Road, Concord) to the hearing (and back) available from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.  Please park on the dirt lot (on the river side of the building) and bring your Minute Man Alert card with you.  Parking will cost GO-NH $2 per car, so donations to help cover the cost are appreciated.  

 

If you cannot attend the hearing, call your State Senator today at (603) 271-2111 and urge him or her to oppose Senate Bill 44.
