Philip Gunn on Gun Control

 

 


Concealed carry for retired cops, even in public parks

SB2862: Carrying a concealed weapon; revise qualification for retired law enforcement officers and delete prohibition in parks.

Summary by National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action [a pro-gun-rights group]: Senate Bill 2862 allowed retired law enforcement officers to qualify for the ability to carry a concealed firearm without a permit under federal law by gaining certification from the Mississippi Association of Chiefs of Police. Repeals the current state ban on the possession of firearms in public parks by Mississippi Right-To-Carry permit holders. This change in state law will allow Mississippi permit holders to carry in state parks.

Legislative outcome: Passed House 117-3-2, Mar/3/10; Passed Senate 52-0-0, Mar/23/10; Philip Gunn voted YES; Signed by Governor Haley Barbour Apr/1/10
