I still dont understand what part of the Second Amendment allows government to regulate how arms are carried at all.
But I'll take what I can get.
Hopefully,this spreads across the land until the Second Amendment means something again.
Whats really interesting to see is how much in the minority the totally prohibitive states are on this issue-two of them.
I'm originally from Vermont - 43 years except for my time in the Nav. I recently moved to NY and it is hard to believe the difference. I had a state cop show up the other day because I was target shooting with my 30/30!! He ran the serial number, took my info, etc... Just plain crazy. He ended up being a good guy though and we shot the shit for awhile - he had the same rifle at home.
In Vermont it's common place and common sense for someone to make sure they are sighted in. I'm 3 hours from where I grew up but the difference in laws is like being on a different planet. I'm guessing it's because of New York City but it's just plain shocking.
