Justice, both on Wednesday, 26 February.\u00a0 HB 2164 (juvenile firearm possession), and SBs 6025 (use of body armor) and 6199 (incendiary devices) had public hearings yesterday or today, and will be voted on in committee next week.<\/p>\n<p>Next cut-off:\u00a0 second chamber policy committee, next Friday, 28 February.<\/p>\n<p>As I reported previously, I&#8217;ve cleaned up the &#8220;Bill Status&#8221; section to reflect only those bills still under consideration.\u00a0\u00a0 To paraphrase Matthew 22:14, \u00a0For many are filed, but few are chosen.\u00a0 Typically in a biennium, three to four thousand bills are filed.\u00a0 Most of these never even get a hearing.\u00a0 Some of these are &#8220;hero&#8221; bills, bills that make the individual sponsoring the bill look good in the home district, or to keep a promise to a constituent or a group.\u00a0 Others are bills with good policy ideas, but are not in line with what leadership wants, or what the party in power likes (many good gun bills fall in this category).\u00a0 Bills with good policy ideas that have consensus across party lines are typically the bills that move.\u00a0 This is true at both the state and federal levels.\u00a0 Congress is much the same, although with 535 total members, more bills get filed!\u00a0 And most go nowhere.<\/p>\n<p>A little drama is underway in Connecticut right now regarding newly-banned &#8220;assault weapons.&#8221;\u00a0 Under the new law, sales or transfers are banned, but individuals who already own such firearms are grandfathered and allowed to keep them &#8212; PROVIDED they register them with the state.\u00a0 The registration date passed with very limited compliance, so the Hartford Courant, Connecticut&#8217;s newspaper of record, opined that the state has a crisis on its hands that can only be met with confiscation of the firearms in question.\u00a0 And they suggest &#8220;<em><a href=\" http:\/\/www.courant.com\/news\/opinion\/editorials\/hc-ed-gun-registration-20140214,0,4908372.story \">Authorities should use the background check database as a way to find assault weapon purchasers who might not have registered those guns in compliance with the new law.<\/a>&#8220;<\/em>\u00a0 (The editorial closes with, &#8220;If you want to disobey the law, you should be prepared to face the consequences.&#8221;\u00a0 And what about those, including elected officials, who choose to disobey the Constitution?)<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve already heard from gun owners who have no problem with background checks, and who characterize linkage between background checks and gun confiscation as irresponsible scare-mongering.\u00a0 I myself am not particularly concerned about background checks&#8230; in and of themselves.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve held the highest security clearances, hold concealed carry licenses from five states&#8230;\u00a0\u00a0 I&#8217;ve even offered legislators ways to conduct background checks WITH NO RECORD KEEPING (they rejected it, as I knew they would).\u00a0 It&#8217;s about what ELSE might be done with the records created, especially with federally mandated dealers&#8217;
