OK, the Legislature has finally agreed on a Bill and have sent it to the Governor for his signature. The Governor has agreed to sign the Bill when it is complete, so it seems like a done deal.
Obviously, the opponents are screaming about an increase in gun violence which makes one wonder if they ever watch the Atlanta News. An increase in violent crime has been happening for a while now. Most of these acts are almost certainly committed by those who are breaking the law by even possessing a gun.
There is however an argument against the law that while I don't agree with it, I do understand their logic. The idea that Police can no longer easily tell who is not legally allowed to have a gun. They say that certain things may not show up on a background check done from a patrol car and the LEO will have no way of knowing whether a specific person can have a gun. Again, I sort of understand the argument as it might apply to criminal cases that have not been finalized, domestic violence issues, restraining orders, mental health issues, etc. What say you?
Sadly, like much of America Georgia is being overrun by people that support more and more regulation, so now may have been the last time to pass meaningful firearms reform laws.
