NEW ITEMS NEEDING ATTENTION
-
Knife Legislation
There is a Protest in Concord Wednesday June 6th in front of the State House. It is from 9-11am. The people who are attending are being asked to carry your firearm holster but have it empty. In place of a gun I will be passing out some pocket size copy of The US Constitution and will be having these attend put them in their gun holsters.
New Hampshire residents take 2 minutes and read this petition.
This is for a proposed law to protect knife rights. (could be an interesting 10th Amendment issue as well)
If you agree ... then sign the petition. (and if you want please forward to other people.. the goal is 1000 signatures before this goes before the NH House)

Bill SP32 - Below is the opening paragraph sent by Mr David Canter, President. Click on this link to read his full email.
There is a very dangerous legislative Bill which has made it through the Senate already and which now is coming up for implementation. SP132 is the designation of this Bill. Its purpose is to help alleviate some of the fiscal problems the State of New Hampshire is facing. Unfortunately, the proposed answer would merge all State of N.H. law enforcement agencies and programs. While this may appear to be a quick fix for our financial woes, we, as concerned sports-people, believe it would be devastating to the interests we have in wildlife management and the preservation of our natural resources.
As discussed at the April Banquet dinner, PFGC is being called upon to lobby. Our president Jack attended the public hearing to discuss this bill on Thursday, April 23, at 11:00 a.m. in Concord (LOB 306).
5/12/09 Update - Jack and a few members went to Concord to lobby. The bill was defeated.
4/30/09 Update - From Pete Davidson, read the bill here: http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/legislation/2009/SB0132.html

You will note that their is already designated positions and who is a candidate to fill those positions. Realize, by designating these positions up front, if this Bill were to pass, the organizing of this organization has the opportunity to start operating very quickly.
