7. More backlash from previous gun-control attempts.

An awful lot of states are open-carry now, which means you can carry unconcealed firearms.

Which includes rifles, shotguns, AND handguns.

Except for a couple of states, gun laws are significantly looser than they were a dozen years ago and it's a direct result of the culture war aspect of the Democrat's gun-control push since Clinton.

Open carry in public spaces should not be allowed within city limits.

Can't they screen Demonstrators for weapons? [View all] speaktruthtopower Aug 2017 OP
