Even though I found this on FB I'm pretty sure it's true and requires attention.

We been warning about the potential for a "Compromise Carry" bill since the summer study committee was created last spring.
“Compromise Carry” is a permit-less carry bill, like “Constitutional Carry” but with gun control added.
Well now it is here, HB 1424, and it is scheduled for a hearing in the House Public Policy Committee tomorrow. While this bill is technically permit-less carry it has several problems:
HB 1424 contains mental health provisions that can cost law-abiding gun owners the loss of their gun rights WITHOUT due process. The language may even be more broad than Obama's Veterans and Social Security gun bans.
There are also provisions concerning protective orders where anyone, not just household members, could get a protective order entered by a judge at a secret hearing that you are not even aware of that would suspend your right to carry.
The state will still require you to carry a state ID at all times when carrying a firearm, and will penalize law-abiding gun owners for no other reason than failing to do so.
As-is if HB 1424 is passed, Indiana would become a “Constitutional Carry” state, but perhaps the most restrictive state of any that have passed it so far.
HB 1424 MUST be fixed before it leaves committee.
Call Rep. Tim Wesco, the bill's author and Vice-Chairman of the Public Policy committee, and tell him we want Constitutional Carry WITHOUT COMPROMISE; fix the bill before voting it out of committee.
Then contact Rep. Ben Smaltz, the Public Policy Chairman and a co-author on the bill and tell him the same.

enough on the ConC thread, but then I remembered my motto: NO HORSE IS TOO DEAD TO BEAT!! Hoosier Carry owes me 15 minutes for the time I spent debunking their non-researched, hyperbolic waste of bandwidth. And 2 hours to BB3!! We're moving the ball down the field and somebody on our own sideline runs out to mid-field and moons the student section. We don't need this right now.
