CCOORDINATOR GETS CLARIFICATION OF CCW GUIDELINES
The usual response when Americans witness
or hear of legislators or law enforcement agencies overstepping
their appropriate bounds is to demand action. ‘Something has to
be done about this!’ is the cry. ‘Someone needs to do something!’
Occasionally, people will group together and wave banners and chant.
This is often enough for most to feel better and be comforted. In
effect they stamp their feet and shake their ineffectual little
fists.
Working to change things is difficult. It
is tiresome. It is tedious. Yet this difficult, tiresome, tedium
is essential to effect change.
It is this difficult, tiresome, tedious work
that has improved conditions in Pennsylvania, and Second Amendment
Sisters takes extreme pride in applauding Judy Brown, our State
Coordinator, whose diligent work has clarified the position of the
State Attorney General and enforced guidelines for the State Police.
At question was the honoring of Florida Concealed
Carry Permits obtained by Pennsylvania residents as well as out
of state gun owners no matter whether or not Florida is their home
state. While the Attorney General’s position had always been that
these permits be honored in the Keystone State, the State Police
chose to ignore that policy.
Judy Brown’s dedicated labor has resulted
in a careful explanation of procedure by the State Attorney General.
The PA State Police have indicated they will post an update to their
website deferring to the PA AG's instructions.
Working in conjunction with other pro-Second
Amendment groups in the state, Judy persevered in her efforts to
bring law enforcement into conformity with the enactment of laws
concerning reciprocity with other states. On a wider basis her labors
have re-enforced the essential separation of powers. The police
may not interpret laws. It is not their prerogative to choose which
laws to uphold and how they will be enforced. The Attorney General
interprets regulations and the State Police follow his guidelines.
Judy Brown has been recognized for her painstaking
work by the NJ Coalition for Self-Defense, along with the pro-gun
groups in PA with which she worked. She is an example of how to
effect change when change should and must occur.
Second Amendment Sisters is a grassroots
organization dedicated to preserving the individual basic human
right to self-defense.
