. Considering the furor over Governor Bresden's "opposition" to State Senator Mark Norris' bill to not allow the governor to halt the sales of guns and ammo in times of an emergency, the meeting topic is most appropriate. Norris' bill did pass in the senate but most likely Janis Sontany and Rob Briley will kill the bill in the House Judiciary Criminal Practices and Procedures Subcommittee. Probably why Bresden changed his mind and went along with the bill knowing full well Naifeh's myrmidons on the house side would kill it.
Thanks,
