    If we protected CCW holders on campus, we'd have a clean sweep....

    Saw that story last night on WHAS11 in Louisville. They interviewed the owner of a gun range (and CCW instructor) and the Jefferson County Sheriff. They did a good job defending Ky's CCW law's. I thought the news did a good job for once.

    Nope, unless something has changed in 10 years, in Montana your automobile is an extension of your home.

    Tied for 14th here in Washington, I am quite pleased with the states laws as they are. I wish someone would finish Mr. Brady off...with a screwdriver.

    Last time I checked Vermont got an F- rating. Due to no handgun restrictions. Wonder how the state rates in crime? Betcha they don't want to know that it's real low. Joe

    Hey[:o)] Glad I moved to OK

    We were just talking about guns at the work place today and one guy said firearms where not allowed on the property. I disagreed with him knowing the law first hand.

    He read the employee handbook, I read the state laws section about this.

    When taking my CCW course I was told about a company in OK that searched everyones vehicle at the workplace and fired all that hand there firearm in the vehicle.

    A lawsuit followed.

    Just what I heard

    South Carolina allows this without a permit.

    Here your viechle is considered an extention of your home.

    Gee, in a state where EVERYONE (of age, etc.) is allowed to carry a gun.
    Where is the blood running in the streets?
