    I voted yes, I hope that was what you wanted. At least you can carry there, even if it is open. I have never been somewhere with that law. What is the objection? Is it the hassle of remembering or that you get outed by going in?
    But if you are authorized to carry a weapon, and you walk outside without it, just take a deep breath, and say this to yourself...

    Trying to control crime with gun control laws is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

    I don't trust Kaine-I think he may try to veto. Did you see the article about the guy who owns a restaurant(says he's also a gun owner) saying he sees no reason for weapons in restaurants. Said the crabs are going to go after people?
    What he is essentially saying is that it's impossible some thug or maniac will try something in his restaurant.
    So he can guarantee everyone's safety? Metal detectors at the entrances? Pat downs for weapons? Armed guards? Don't think so.......I'm sure the people at VA Tech,NIU,and Colombine thought it could never happen too......
    "The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree..."

    I wouldn't trust kaine to be able to figure out how to do more than pick his nose on his own. I wouldn't be surprised if he failed to sign it.
