State
after state has adopted some version of the “Castle Doctrine.”
Recently,
State of Nevada Assemblyman Mortenson introduced AB288, Nevada’s version of the Castle Doctrine.
Now, we find that Judiciary Committee Chairman Bernie Anderson is holding up this bill.
Nevada is one of a handful of states
that have traditionally been fairly friendly when it comes to gun owners. One
wonders why Bernie Anderson would desire to deprive honest, law-abiding people
of this important piece of legislation.
I urge
you to contact your state legislators, members of the Assembly Judiciary
Committee and Barbara Buckley in support of AB288 and ask them to bring
this bill up for a full hearing and urge them to pass this bill.
Be polite
but be firm.
