Pennsylvania Castle Doctrine Legislation Dies Under Lame Duck Rendell’s Pen

Firearms Owners Against Crime

Pennsylvania --(Ammoland.com)- As I predicted would happen, Gov. Rendell less than two hours ago vetoed House Bill 1926 that contained the Castle doctrine legislation as an amendment within it.

In supporting the governor’s veto District attorneys Association, Ed Marsico, stated that this legislation would encourage a “shoot first mentality”!

Now judges, law enforcement, and citizens around this state know these kind of rhetorical statements are nothing more than prejudicial, emotional hyperbole meant to avoid dealing with the issues; the real issue here is a slap in the face that has just been handed to every Pennsylvania citizen wherein Marsico has said you are less trustworthy than the citizens and the 23 other states that have passed this legislation!

All they have done is delay the inevitable as we have already laid the groundwork for this legislation to be reintroduced next year. We promise you that we will get this passed early next year so Pennsylvanians will enjoy the commonsense protections our founding fathers intended us to have!

We wish you and your family a joyous, Happy and Merry Christmas holiday and we appreciate your help with this effort! Any immortal words of the Terminator in the Terminator movies-“we will be back”!

Thank you again!

Respectfully,

Rosh Ha’Ayin, Israel --(Ammoland.com)- RVTT Reshef Technology, a developer and provider of advanced targets for combat units, will launch its new line of revolutionary 3D targets for combat and counter-terrorism units at I/ITSEC 2010 – the world’s largest modeling, simulation and training conference, to be held November 29-December 2, 2010 in Orlando, Florida.

The new targets will be on display at the company’s booth, #2085.

The new 3D targets, RESHEF RVTT 3039, are realistic, visual 3D infantry targets for dry/live-fire training of military combat forces and police anti-terror special units, such as SWAT teams. The multi-spectral target, designed for day and night training, has passive thermal reflective capability and provides users with a realistic thermal picture. Radar and laser signatures can be provided as an option.

The RESHEF RVTT 3039 targets are positioned in the field training area, using various battlefield scenarios. The target’s unique features create a realistic atmosphere – a real battlefield look and feel – in all weather conditions.

RESHEF RVTT 3039 is based on RVTT’s proprietary worldwide Multi Spectral Products patent and on the Visual Reality concept, which combines various means of display perceived as real by the trainees, providing them with a realistic visual experience as if they were actually involved in a battle. RVTT’s Visual Reality™ bridges the gap between physical reality and virtual reality, in a variety of different terrain conditions.

“The new RESHEF RVTT 3039 highly improves the skills of combat forces at all levels using day and night target identification and destruction means in a real terrain environment,” said David Reshef, RVTT’s CEO. “The new targets are another milestone in our efforts to equip combat units and anti-terror Special Forces with the best training aids, creating the feeling of being on a real battlefield.”
