Now a bill introduced earlier this year in the U.S. House, called the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, would nullify state gun safety laws pertaining to concealed carry (carrying a hidden — presumably loaded — gun on one’s person). Representative Dent is a co-sponsor.
Dent is dead wrong on this one. Concealed carry reciprocity is dangerous.
Federal concealed carry reciprocity forces states to reciprocate other states’ concealed carry permit laws — no matter how lax or ineffective. Its effect will be to make the least restrictive state’s concealed carry permit criteria the law of the land. |

'Better stock up on the valium, Lori, 'cause it's a done deal.
The Congress will pass it and the President will sign it, and that will be that.
"Article IV Section 1. - Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records and judicial Proceedings of every other State; And the Congress may by general Laws prescribe the Manner in which such Acts, Records and Proceedings shall be proved, and the Effect thereof."

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
