George Lavender for State Representative wrote: "The holster provision has been eliminated. We never found a definition that people could understand and agree on. You still need a holster, but nothing specific."

Remember all those people who were biting their nails about people rocking the boat about the stupid holster definitions?

Eat crow, cowards.

Cowards? Because people have a concern about patrol cops "using the tools at their disposal" to get more arrests?

I'm referring to the people who didn't want anyone to rock the boat because they were afraid we'd lose the prospect of open carry altogether if we made a stink about the stupid level II stuff.

I once said I was going to try to talk to the author of that level II requirement stuff on the radio and tell him why it was a bad idea, to which many people were all like, "Oh, no! Please don't do that!"

Pish posh. Nothing risked, nothing gained.

Lawl. If you come up with a dumb idea, you should be called out on it. If you can say that you couldn't agree on a good way to get it in the final version so you just remove it, there are some points.
