<DIV><SPAN class=062462722-22122007><FONT face=Arial size=4>SAPA rewrites
the firearms laws of Georgia. It removes conflicting, confusing and overly
restrictive laws. It permits open carry. It includes the Car
Carry Bill from the 2007 session. It stops capers like Mayor Bloomberg's
straw purchasers. It repeals the Public Gathering law. It requires timely
issuance of firearms licenses. It includes the Katrina Bill.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=062462722-22122007><FONT face=Arial size=4>The legwork has been
done by a dedicated group of citizens and legislators. HB 915 is pre-filed.
Everything in it is similar to the law in at least one other state. There is
nothing in it that has not been adopted successfully
elsewhere.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=062462722-22122007><FONT face=Arial size=4>This Bill needs
massive public support to overcome the "wild-west, blood in the street"
editorials that will surely follow its introduction. The Legislature needs to
know that this Bill has broad public support because they won't find out from
the media. A crowd of voters turning up in downtown Atlanta mid-week to support
this Bill will let them know just that.</FONT></SPAN></DIV><SPAN
