INDIANA: Five (5) NRA backed bills passed and signed this year.

Indiana to Benefit from Five New Pro-Gun Laws on July 1, 2011!



Thursday, May 12, 2011

In one of the most successful pro-gun legislative sessions in the Hoosier State’s recent history, the Indiana General Assembly passed and Governor Mitch Daniels signed into law five new NRA-supported firearm bills!

As of July 1, Hoosiers will:

Be protected from employer anti-gun workplace discrimination;
Have the ability to purchase a long gun in any state that allows such sales;
Transport a firearm to a shooting range without a state-issued permit;
Know that wherever they travel throughout Indiana, the same firearm laws and freedoms apply evenly across local boundaries; and
Carry a loaded firearm on their person on off-road vehicles on private property.



It has been a good year for the NRA in Indiana. I fear (OK, not fear, rejoice) that next year's Brady grade for them will be much lower.

7. Poacher protection?
Edited on Fri May-13-11 03:20 AM by one-eyed fat man
I have known very few folks who poach their own property. All the landowners I have known tended to be concerned about the wildlife on their lands.

Most all the poachers I have encountered were also trespassing and "hunting" on lands where they were not invited or given permission to hunt.

Growing up, I don't remember how old I was when I first saw a pick up truck without a rifle rack. I thought they all came with one from the factory. So how does this law protect poachers?

3. "Be protected from employer anti-gun workplace discrimination; "
This needs to go national.
