                  USF Executive Director
                  NRA Past President

Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson (D) who failed to fill out the NRA-PVF candidate questionnaire in his last election, has recently demonstrated an anti-gun and anti-veteran position, by revoking reciprocity with Florida for concealed weapons and firearms license holders. 

The punitive action against gun-owners who have Florida licenses to carry concealed weapons or firearms was taken because Florida has honored members of the armed forces and veterans.

In 2012, Florida passed legislation to recognize the men and women of our armed services who have served our nation honorably.

Our nation trains 18 year old men and women in firearms proficiency then sends them off to war and asks them to give their lives, if necessary, in the cause of Freedom.

When they have served our nation honorably and returned home to private life, it is unconscionable to tell them our state will not allow them to qualify for a concealed weapons and firearms license so they may protect themselves and their family because they have not yet reached the age of 21.

Recognizing that our men and women in the military have been called into service in the fight for Freedom when they reach the age 18 - the age of majority, the Florida legislature lowered the minimum age requirement from 21 to 18 years of age for those men and women who have served our nation and have been honorably discharged from the service.

This age waiver ONLY applies to veterans.  Every other citizen must be 21 years of age or older.

Because of this recognition of special circumstances involving our brave military men and women, Attorney General Ferguson has chosen to revoke reciprocity with Florida for concealed weapons and firearms license holders.

Florida has honored our veterans, and for that, all law-abiding Florida license holders have been punished by Attorney General Ferguson.

You can help by urging the Attorney General to reinstate reciprocity with Florida and once again recognize our licenses as valid in Washington State. 

CALL:  Please call Attorney General Ferguson at (360) 753-2702. 

E-MAIL: Attorney General Ferguson does not have a publicly available e-mail address, you may send an e-mail to Assistant Attorney General Susan Pierini at: SusanP1@atg.wa.gov[/size]

Save your breath.  This is about NOTHING.

How many honorably discharged Florida vets are affected by this?  There can't be many.  How many are discharged before their 21st birthday?  Regardless the number, it won't affect them for long, and not at all if they stay out of Washington State for a few months.

There's simply nothing to gain here and it makes pro-RKBA advocates look like a pack of wackos.  If the people of WA do not want frightened, gun-toting children prowling the streets of their cities, that's their right.  End of story.

45-70.gov - don't take the bait!

It is from a legitimate source (Marion Hammer, Past NRA President). 

Unless you are here (Florida) and affected, don't make like it shouldn't be considered.   

I an IN with 45-70 on this.

I am in with 45-70 on this too - I wasn't referring to his original post.

Although I have never made his acquaintance, I'm sure Mr. Hammer is a fine young man.  So which is it?  Does he reside in FL?  Or does he riside in WA?

It affects ALL Florida permits in Washington state.  Washington  state could have just refused to  home  any one under 21.  with out rejecting  ALL  permits.

You answered your own question.  If WA rejects all FL CCW permits, then age is not an issue.

Those FL residents who wish to carry in WA can simply apply for a WA state permit.  If WA permits are recognized in FL, there's your solution.

During the Vietnam era, many US citizens registered for the draft at 18.  Is anyone required to registered for the draft these days? 

Most contemporary Americans are honorably discharged from HIGH SCHOOL at age 18.  US military combat vets tend to be a bit older at their discharge.  Are 18 year old Florida permit holders allowed to carry concealed on US military bases?

What was your point?

Lizz your post just shows your ignorance. Do some research before you post.
Marion Hammer was the first (woman) president of the NRA. Not a young man. Why dont you go over to the demacratic underground and troll there.
