GOP Caucus Vendor Requested State Handgun Database List

By Kleinheider Posted on November 2, 2009 at 11:24 am

But House GOP Caucus Chair Glen Casada is opposed to using such lists for political purposes:

An Associated Press records search has found copies of the state’s database of more than 257,000 handgun permit holders were recently requested by the National Rifle Association, the state Republican Party and a direct mail contractor that has done extensive work for the GOP’s legislative caucus.

Asked about those requests, House Republican Caucus Chairman Glen Casada says he opposes using the database for political purposes like campaign fundraising or get out the vote efforts.

    I am a handgun carry permit holder, but I am neither Democrat or Republican; as a matter of fact, I despise both parties for what they have become. Leave me the hell alone.

    Since the decision was made not to close the database, there’s no reason it shouldn’t be used like this. Maybe now liberals will clamor to close it as well?
