Arkansas Act 746 is very clear. There has not been one successful prosecution in Arkansas for carrying a handgun for self-defense purposes only since Act 746 took effect in August 2013. Hundreds of law-abiding women and men have open carried and concealed carried without a permit in plain view of law enforcement across the state without facing arrest. State office holders are proclaiming Arkansas as a Constitutional Carry state. Even the anti-gun University of Arkansas School of Law has stated that the legislature passed permit-less carry with Act 746. Prosecutors are refusing to prosecute any citizen who is arrested under this law.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
