Much to the chagrin of Second Amendment proponents, public and private employers, municipalities, public and private schools, owners of stores, malls and office buildings continue to ban those with a legal right to carry weapons from having them on their person at their venues.
The once strong and, seemingly, infallible Second Amendment has been watered down to the point that right-to-carry license holders can only have guns in their residences. The left is winning this — one employer, one municipality, one store owner, one office building owner at a time, with the courts backing this movement. |

I don't know what country Walter is living in, but all I see are states and localities coming to their senses, one-by-one, eliminating (or severely relaxing) gun-free zones. Some are even removing permit requirements to carry in-state, and that movement is growing along with state after state coming to embrace Stand Your Ground self-defense laws.
The vast majority of states have reciprocity of some kind.
Hell, there's even a national reciprocity bill pending in Congress.
Walter should change his name to Cassandra.
Or open his eyes. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
