The right to keep and bear arms is granted under the Second Amendment of the Constitution, but over the years, it's become a hot-button issue. While some states have increased restrictions on gun owners, Oklahoma legislators loosened regulations this year.
The first bill signed into law by Gov. Kevin Stitt after taking office was H.B. 2597, better known as the constitutional carry bill. Oklahomans will be allowed to carry firearms without a permit or training starting Nov. 1. The legislation passed Senate with a 40-6 vote, and State Sen. Dewayne Pemberton, R-Muskogee, was among its supporters. |

"The right to keep and bear arms is granted under the Second Amendment of the Constitution."
That statement, first one out of the gate, destroys your credibility sir.
The rest of your treatise is, therefore, not worth reading. |

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 |
