Go West, young man. North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Utah, Idaho, Colorado, and Arizona will recongize the carry permits of most other states (you'll want to check packing.org to verify). Also I believe in New Mexico, your vehicle is considered your domicile, so open or concealed is...

More than likely, some anti-RKBA thug like Mayor Daley will bring suit after one of his goons arrest an out-of-state LEO for travelling armed through Illinois. Or some gun-grabber in NJ will arrest an out-of-state cop for carrying hollowpoints. Then some ambitious DA will tack on a charge of...

I think the courts will probably overturn it also. And "resentful" cops, via their professional organizations, will likely delay implementation of CCW laws in the few states that don't have them. The irony of this situation (should this outcome occur) will be that many out-of-state cops...

Well, it seems like some "gunowners" here want to enforce "imaginary" laws against open carry anyway. It is not illegal to openly carry in Virginia, nor is it immoral, nor does it infringe upon any one else's Rights. People in Virginia have the Right to open carry, and a Right not exercised...

Several things. First, it is the LEO groups that are participating in the "us vs. them" mentality. THEY are the ones that have fought tooth and nail virtually ever CCW law in every state. The NRA and other gunowners worked to pass these laws, and even after the LEO groups pissing all over us...

The VA legislature isn't going to ban open carry because of all this "outrage" over it. (Keep in mind that this "outrage" is only about 1% of the population. Rabid anti-gunners in the media and politics are the only ones complaining). The only thing legislatively to come out of this will...

The folks whining here need to calm down. Open carry is a fundamental Right of a Free people and I'm glad to see Virginians exercising it. As for those they want to become defensive on this issue, this is exactly what the gun-grabbers want. Ten years ago, the same folks were probably...

I think it is more of a quasi-police state, but we approaching a total one. What are the characteristics of a police state? -- One set of rules for the elites and the enforcers, and another for the rest of us -- So many laws that anyone can be arrested for almost anything -- Shift...

Here in Florida, there are 330,000 people with CCW "permits". Since Oklahoma regonizes Florida "permits", that is 330,000 potential people that are armed when they travel through Oklahoma.

I believe their view was once you did your punishment, you came back into the community. If someone committed an henous crime, they were simply put to death. Times were much simpler back then.

Loud Dogg, Some background info first. Until 1934, there were virtually NO gun laws in the United States. The few laws that existed then had the objective of keeping guns out of the hands of former slaves. Even until 1968, you could order rifles through the mail, unless they were machine...

You have to keep in mind that the 2nd amendment merely enumerated certain of our Rights. The Founders thought that the enumerated Rights listed in the first 10 amendments were so important, that is was important to list them, lest there be any doubt. (Interesting enough, some, like Madison...

The only Constitution worth the paper it was written on was the one penned by Madison and company over 200 years ago. Only our Constitution recognizes the inherent and supreme authority of the people, and that government isn't the source of our Rights, but rather simply a mechanism for...

National CCW for cops only is a terrible idea. "Equality of the law" is one of the cornerstones of a Constitutional Republic. If a law is so bad that certain segments of the public are exempt from it, then it should be repealed. Likewise, if a law is good, it should apply equally to...

Under current law, they both are expected to know the various carry laws in each state they go through. I've been on two long road trips in the last 6 months (one to the West Coast, and one up to Virginia), and yes, I spent *hours* reading up on the various carry laws in each state. It isn't...

Exempting certain classes of citizens from certain laws is a very bad precedent, which resembles a third-world oligarchy more than a Constitutional Republic. If a law is so onerous that certain citizens should be exempted from it, then it is a bad law and should be repealed. On the other...

My 2 cents: Property owners have a Right to ask anyone to leave at anytime. If the individual refuses to leave, then it is criminal trespass. If the individual is armed or if they are unarmed makes no difference. Property owners also have a Right to post whatever signs they want to...

<i>in the fact that, lets face it, one of the easiest stunts to pull off (if perhaps not the most effective in terms of destruction or body count) is a gunman with a rifle in a shopping mall</i> What happens afterwards depends on how the event is "spun" by our so called "leaders". In many...

Hi Travis. Good to "see" you here. I've lurked for awhile, but finally singed up today. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see some of "super columbine" event, especially with all of the domestic enemies of the Constitution (and their willing accomplices such as rogue feds), and the foreign...
