"Arkansas has pretty permissive gun laws. It does not require handgun owners to obtain licenses, does not ban so-called assault weapons, issues concealed-carry permits to anyone who meets a short list of objective criteria, accepts carry permits issued by other states and, since 2013, arguably allows people to openly carry handguns without a permit."
"Although Bill Clinton was the governor of Arkansas from 1983 to 1992, he and his wife, the Democratic Party's presumptive presidential nominee, prefer a decidedly more restrictive approach.

'You Can't Have a Bunch of People Walking Around With Guns'
Why not??? We have "Open Carry" here in New Mexico and I have not observed blood running in the gutters of our streets! I have, however, observed many instances of CITIZENS going about their daily routines while wearing their handguns! No problems observed. |

Does anyone ever bother to ask these 'restrictors', 'what are you afraid of ?'. Since even the gun banners acknowledge criminals don't obey gun laws, what purpose does imposing more restrictive gun law that will only be observed by law-abiding citizens serve ?
IMNSHO only two: 1) to criminalize ever more of the nation's community leaders as a control measure and 2) eliminate or restrict, ISFAP, the means of effective "grass roots" resistance to any force seeking to impose dictatorial powers upon our populace or constitutional systems. |

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 |
