Confused
 

Where to begin? This whole show (HB462) is one big mess. The local Delegate for my county wouldn't return any phone calls on his voting for this crap. But I'll remember him come election time. His office called me to unlock his office and when he got the bill he called me.

" this is really a bad law" he said, so  I asked why vote for it then?. I will meet with any locksmith to take proposals to alter the bill to make it better". Guess who won't return my calls.

 In the county I live in and pay taxes to , I rarely ever get and business  from them. I have to compete with local police and sheriffs depts. who use my tax money to go out and try to unlock cars for free.

 If this law stays in effect the first changes should be that all lock work to be performed on any public office or facility of any kind should have the DCJS license. Also police should only do emergency lockouts, such as involving a child or pet locked in.

 The local police have a list of self professed locksmiths that they rotate on call basis. I hope they all have DCJS numbers. I'll be checking this out as soon as I'm issued my photo ID.

  Now is the time to get this thing worked out to make it right before in mushrooms out of control even more.  Daryl Statome   Mobile Locksmith Co   Lexington,va.
