West Virginia Governor confused about what the 2nd

He's confused about what the second amendment actually says.

http://gunssavelives.net/blog/gun-laws/breaking-wv-governor-vetoes-constitutional-carry-bill/


In his statement re: vetoing constitutional carry, he says,

"Throughout my career, I have strongly supported the Second Amendment, as demonstrated by my repeated endorsements and high grades from the National Rifle Association. However, I must also be responsive to the apprehension of law enforcement officers from across the state, who have concerns about the bill as it relates to the safety of their fellow officers.

It also would eliminate the required gun safety training courses for those applying for a concealed carry permit. In light of these concerns and in the interest of public safety for all West Virginians, I have vetoed Senate Bill 347."


Perhaps he can point to the part that allows mandatory licensing and training.


Just another NRA-backed gun butter.

    Endorsement by the NRA is a sure sign that he has no idea what the 2nd amendment says or is about.
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    I hope he and Senator Manchin are shown the door as soon as possible. And once again "the chiefs" show what they really think of civilians.

    "I am a gun owner...I am a hunter...I support the right to keep and bear arms...BUT we need common sense gun control."

    Wish I had a buck for every POS who said this...

    Manchin will run for governor of WV again.

    From what I hear on the radio there is a chance of a override on his asinine veto.

    West Virginia is a State on the top of SSDI claims, Food stamps the bottom in education, housing, labor, regulation environment, growth prospects and health ran by (D)'s and institutionalized corruption. This blend is not going to get top quality representation from the voters.

    Of course our fellow members in good standing living in the great state of WV are excluded from the masses of inbred, morons flocking to the polls to pull the (D) lever for a bottle of hooch.
