This is the direction where we (Louisiana) need to go with conceal carry.

Hell if it's okay to open carry without one, why the hell not? Then people would treat people the same way we treat guns, like they're always loaded.

quote:

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (Reuters) - Kansas residents would be allowed to carry concealed weapons without permits under a proposed measure endorsed by a majority of state senators, the bill's author said on Thursday.

Kansas would join Alaska, Vermont, Wyoming and Arizona as states that allow residents to carry concealed weapons statewide without a permit, according to the National Rifle Association, which supports such legislation.

Legal discussion aside, I have no problems with background checks and requiring one to go through a class.

Here in Mississippi, one does not need to take a class like in Louisiana. I wish it were a requirement.

Although I would be for it passing. I don't think that it will pass due to the loss of revenue that the permits bring in. It goes into a conservation fund that eeks out every little bit of cash that they can squeeze out of the outdoor folks in the state.

There is a huge outcry against it here in Wichita already. The local media uses photos of AR-15s with 30 rd. mags when mentioning the story on the news today. Because naturally, that's what I carry concealed.

Me and the SO took a road trip this winter which took us through Arizona. I was shocked to learn that you didn't need a permit to carry a concealed weapon. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Arizona.

It's all about the money, so it won't happen. I sure as hell know Oregon or Washington won't do it.

I 100% stand behind any state that supports Constitutional Carry and think LA will get there within 10 years.

If Constitutional Carry is dangerous, shouldn't the crime rates in those states be out of control? Oh they aren't? People are responsible and logical? Sounds good to me.

I learned a good bit in the class I took.

I am absolutely against the state's ability to require me to take it, though.
That is complete horseshite and the requirement should be abolished.

I'm ok with education component for carry but the hunter Ed requirement is a cluster frick it took almost 2 years to get a few kids I know into the program.
