Shane Stringer, R-Citronelle, took place after an hour of contentious debate that crossed party lines.<\/p>\n<p>Stringer argued that the legislation would allow law-abiding citizens to carry weapons without fear of legal retribution, and said permit laws did not deter crime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fact of the matter is criminals don\u2019t adhere to laws,\u201d Stringer said. \u201cThey don\u2019t obey the laws we have now. We cannot legislate an evil heart from Montgomery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The bill passed with an amendment that would require gun owners to declare that they were carrying firearms when asked by a police officer. But there was confusion about a second amendment proposed by Rep. Proncey Robertson, R-Mount Hope, that appeared to create separate penalties for bringing firearms in areas where they are currently restricted and led Stringer to call Rep. Mike Jones, R-Andalusia, not a member of the committee, to explain it.<\/p>\n<p>Rep.
