According to Fox 25 (http://www.okcfox.com/story/24530897/piers-morgan-act-would-revoke-need-for-gun-license-in-oklahoma), a State Senator has filed legislation that he says would ‘reaffirm Oklahomans’ Second Amendment rights’ by not requiring law-abiding citizens to obtain a gun license.


In 2012, Oklahoma passed (http://newsok.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-oklahomas-new-open-carry-gun-law/article/3724415)an “open carry” law that allowed permit-holders to openly carry firearms. Senate Bill 1473 goes beyond that. It restores 2nd Amendment rights by not requiring gun owners to obtain a gun permit.


State Sen. Nathan Dahm states, “The Second Amendment says the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, and yet when we require our citizens to jump through hoops, pay fees and undergo a process that presumes they’re guilty of something until proven otherwise, their rights are being infringed upon,” Dahm said in a press release. “Senate Bill 1473 simply says Oklahomans can carry firearms in all the places currently allowed by law, but they will no longer be required to obtain a license to do so.”


The bill is named after Piers Morgan, one of the most vocal gun rights opponents on cable news. Morgan responded to the bill tweeting, “UNBELIEVABLE.”

'Piers Morgan' act would revoke need for gun license in Oklahoma Posted: Thursday, January 23, 2014 1:22 PM EST Updated: Thursday, January 23, 2014 1:42 PM EST By: Jay Dillon, Senior Digital Content Manager - email (jjdillon@okcfox.com?body=http://www.okcfox.com/story/24530897/piers-morgan-act-would-revoke-need-for-gun-license-in-oklahoma)

A State Senator has filed legislation that he says would 'reaffirm Oklahomans' Second Amendment rights' by not requiring law-abiding citizens to obtain a gun license.

State Sen. Nathan Dahm filed Senate Bill 1473, or what he calls the "Piers Morgan Constitutional Right to Keep and Bear Arms Without Infringement Act".

The bill proposes to allow citizens over the age of 18 to open carry loaded or unloaded guns without a license for hunting and target shooting. The bill would also cover military or law enforcement functions; for practice or performance for entertainment purposes; or for lawful self-defense purposes.

"The Second Amendment says the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, and yet when we require our citizens to jump through hoops, pay fees and undergo a process that presumes they're guilty of something until proven otherwise, their rights are being infringed upon," Dahm said in a press release. "Senate Bill 1473 simply says Oklahomans can carry firearms in all the places currently allowed by law, but they will no longer be required to obtain a license to do so."

If the bill passes, gun-free zones like schools and government facilities would still be off-limits.
After learning of the act, Piers morgan tweeted "unbelievable" followed by an invitation to Dahm to come on his show to debate the act: "Hi Senator @NathanDahm - come on my show and debate your new 'Piers Morgan Act'. If you have the guts."

I dont need the ratings like your tanking tv show so I dont have to put in a appearance.

But you can come on down to the O.K. corral with your tough talking mouth and see how that fares for you.


I will pencil you in if i have some time.
