Arlington, VA - FBI statistics showing violent crimes decreasing correlate with the popularity of state laws allowing the carrying of concealed firearms by private citizens.
What is needed now is national CCW reciprocity.

Do you think putting our CCW in the hands of the feds is a good idea?
Randy, CCW Reciprocity isn’t putting control of our CCW’s in the hands of the feds. All it will do is make states treat each others CCW permits like they do DL’s. That way we can carry just the same way as we can now drive, from state to state, without getting into trouble for having a concealed firearm. If the states would get their heads out of their rear ends and recognize each others CCW Permits the feds would not have to step in.
“CCW Reciprocity isn’t putting control of our CCW’s in the hands of the feds. All it will do is make states treat each others CCW permits like they do DL’s.”
And that’s the “next step” Frank. Don’t fool yourself.
The tragedy here is that there are “pro-gun” people that think this “Reciprocity” nonsense is a good idea.
If we respected the 2A as it was intended by the Founding Fathers we already have National Conceal Carry!
But sadly many people including gun owners think the government has a right to legislate the 2A as they choose.
Our rights come from God, Not the Federal Government.
The 2A was written as a commanding prohibition into the entry and encroachment upon the right to keep and bear arms and that prohibition applies to the States as well.
