Very true, very sad. It has always baffled me as to why the state, or federal authorities would give me the right (and license) to carry a concealed weapon, and then tell me that I can't carry it in the very places where trouble could occur, i.e., banks, schools, libraries, post offices, restaurants with bars, state and federal parks, government offices, and the list goes on. I was never one to carry in those places anyway, but could have because it would have been concealed. If they don't trust me to carry in those places then why issue the license??
I carried everyday when I owned my store, but haven't since I sold the store. That is, unless I have to put myself in a bad situation, like the time my friend wanted to take a bus (MegaBus) to Chicago and had to be at a downtown Cincinnati street corner at 2am. I was packin' heat, but she never knew, so it was a non-issue (she would have freaked). I was not going to leave her on the corner by herself, and I wasn't going to be down there at that hour without 'my little friend'.
The issue of gun control is going to be tested if someone makes it to the White House. IMO
Please don't change my right to carry and in fact, they should reduce the restrictions on those of us law abiding citizens trying to protect ourselves.
