Them's Compromisin' Words, Pardner
Sen. Mark Madsen began a quest to give Utah's law-abiding citizens the upper hand in potential running gun battles with bad guys.
His effort to reform the law on guns in cars was orchestrated by Gun Owners of Utah, a lobbying group whose die-hard motto is:
"Utah's Uncompromising, Independent Gun Rights Network. No Compromise! No Retreat! No Surrender! Not Now! Not Ever!"
The Madsen/GOUtah's bill aimed to allow motorists to carry their firearms ready to fire with a single squeeze of the trigger.
Unfortunately the democratic process being what it is, the only version of the bill that Madsen could get out of committee was little more than a "clean up" bill, clarifying how a gun can be stored in a car.
Which sounds an awful lot like a compromise. Right now.
"You sometimes have to do what you can do when you can do it," said GOUtah spokesman Charles Hardy.
After being reminded of his web site banner, he added, "There's a difference between a deal with the devil and what we can do today."

I came to this blog to see if I could find some more information on the various tax reform bills being considered in the house and senate ... and this is all I get? Can you guys have some serious consideration of the different options being considered, or can you recommend a better place for me to go?
