Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal (R) signed a sweeping gun rights bill on Wednesday.

House Bill 60, also known as The Safe Carry Protection Act, will allow licensed gun owners to carry their firearms into public places, including bars, nightclubs, schools, churches and government buildings.

Looks like someone understands that

Gun free zone = killing zone

I'm okay with what I've heard about the law except for not having to show your permit if requested.

I don't see an issue with this.

The right to own and carry a gun should be protected and expanded.

The issue with "gun rights" activists is not that. It's their idea that assault rifles should carry the same type of protection.

And why shouldn't they?

Why shouldn't a law abiding citizen be allowed to own the same arms as the police force?

Research "in common use" as it relates to firearms, specifically the case United States v. Miller.

As "assault rifles" are consistently the top selling type of rifle year after year, I'd say they're "in common use."

Guns in bars and nightclubs is an extremely bad idea.
