It's bad enough that seemingly no level of gun violence, even the massacre of children in an elementary school, is enough to pull Congress out of the back pocket of the firearms industry. Now some Republicans want to effectively wipe out state laws on concealed handguns altogether. On its face, the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, sponsored by Rep. Richard Hudson, R-N.C., would let people who are allowed to carry a concealed firearm in one state carry it in any other state. A closer look shows this bill would gut the ability of states like New York to stem the proliferation of concealed guns.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
