Bill would allow concealed weapons across state lines

 

Gun owners would be allowed to carry concealed weapons around the country under new legislation introduced in the Senate.

The Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act would allow gun owners who have a concealed carry permit in their home state to bring their firearms in any other state with concealed-carry laws.

"This operates more or less like a driver’s license,” Sen. John Cornyn (Texas), the second-ranking Republican in the upper chamber, told The Hill. "So, for example, if you have a driver’s license in Texas, you can drive in New York, in Utah and other places, subject to the laws of those states."

    Nice idea, but is the 2nd amendment not clear enough?

    This has a good chance at passing both houses but hell will freeze over before the SCOAMF signs it.....and there aren't enough votes to override a veto/pocket veto.
