I admire you for checking the laws, but I travel with mine through any state I want and if I have to use it I will tell the jury that I would rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6.
I understand that thought process, but realize it's going to cost you a minimum of about $50K-100K in legal expenses if you end up in court. Depending on the state, you may also end up w/ a felony offense. Having a CCW license will allow you to legally carry your loaded, and easily accessible, weapon in most all the gulf coast states. If you don't have a CCW, I'd recommend geting one. It's worth it for a number of reasons.

What you are saying makes perfect sense and is logical. The problem that I, and others, have with this whole issue is that we feel we should have the right to CC without having to get permission to do so. I wonder if the issue would be different if everyone ignored this regulation and stood on constitutional grounds? There's not enough jails to lock us all up. And by giving ground on the right to CC only if you have a permit, we have empowered the anti-gunners by acquiescing to their argument. Yeah, I know. My principles are probably getting in the way again. It's just how I feel, though.
