The Kansas City Star reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n“Everybody wants the foundation bill, but I don’t want any more amendments on it,” said Senate Majority Leader Jim Denning, R-Overland Park.<\/p>\n
The Senate version only makes possessing a throwing star a crime if it’s intended to be used unlawfully against another person. It also makes it legal for Kansas residents to own a silencer under certain stipulations.<\/p>\n
“The underlying bill is good,” said Sen. Ty Masterson, R-Andover, who made the throwing star amendment. “This just solves another problem all in the same time. So, if you’re saying solving more problems is better, yes, it’s better.”<\/p>\n
Jo Ella Hoye, a leader with the Kansas chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, said she still supports the bill, despite the amendments.<\/p>\n
“Women and families across Kansas will be safer the day this bill takes effect,” she said in an email.<\/p>\n
The bill would also ban fugitives, those in the country illegally and people subject to certain protection orders from having a gun.<\/p>\n
State law currently prohibits people convicted of felony domestic violence from owning a gun.<\/p>\n
The legislation comes amid continued debate over guns following the mass shooting at a Florida high school last month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
