How come we don't have a NATIONAL CCW PERMIT???

What is needed is a supreme court that will recognize the second amendment for what it is. Then we would have a Constitutional right to carry...Nation wide.

We did have a constitutional right to carry, with a few exceptions in parts of the country. Prior to GCA-68 people in many states concealed carry or open carried a hand gun without a permit from local/state government.

Then the feds got involved.................... in 1968 and again in 1993. Anyone here willing to see the feds get another turn at bat over our second amendment rights??

I dont think I want to take that gamble. If you look at, I believe we focus way too much on what the federal government is and is not doing when we could get alot more done by pressuring our local and state legislatures. The power was given to the states to begin with and they are alot more accessible
to the voters. The fed has gained so much power because we have played into their game for so long....maybe too long.
