Rep. Rich Golick (R-Smyrna), said a subcommittee will be able to "hash out" some of the concerns about the bill.
Most of the discussion centers on an expansion of the rights of licensed gun owners to carry their weapons to churches, bars and college campuses.
The bill's sponsor, Rep. Tim Bearden (R-Villa Rica), told committee members Thursday the existing law is "extremely confusing" to gun owners and law enforcement.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports an overflow crowd appeared at the hearing, including gun rights supporters wearing orange badges that read: "Guns Save Lives."








IMHO, the more rights people have with guns, the better. But don't take MHO by itself. Australia recently passed laws that took guns away from its citizens. Crime has sky-rocketed in that country because criminals know that law-abiding citizens have virtually nothing to defend themselves.
You ask me what "laws" I want to see passed, but I'm not a lawyer and think we have enough laws already. I just think that since new laws are inevitable, they should focus more on the list above and less on sex, guns, and Christian heritage.
What a laugh!
