The state house of misrepresentatives has passed a law allowing any legal firearm owner to carry a concealed weapon without a permit, or even any training. You might ask... why?
Except you aren't ever going to get any answer that makes sense from a true gun nut, other than that his firm and totally incorrect belief is that the Second Amendment entitles him to have a powerful killing weapon in his possession at all times.
In this case, there's another reason; your average good ol' boy doesn't like paying the $100 application fee for a concealed weapon permit, plus subsequent fees every few years to renew the license. |

"other than that his firm and totally incorrect belief is that the Second Amendment entitles him to have a powerful killing weapon in his possession at all times."
So, what part of "the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall NOT be infringed" says that my right can be infringed?
How is my belief that the Second Amendment entitles me to have a powerful killing weapon in my possession at all times totally incorrect? In what way is it incorrect? Specifically, what does shall NOT be infringed mean?

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| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times.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 For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in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 If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal.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) |
