I find the term “constitutional carry” quite interesting. In the United States, the term “constitutional carry”, also called “permitless carry”, is a neologism for the legal carrying of a handgun, both openly and concealed, without the requirement of a government permit. It’s absurd to pass a law that gives a citizen a right that is already enshrined in the Constitution. The use of the term “constitutional carry” is an overt acknowledgment that the right already exists. A better approach might be to make a law that declares all previous laws relating to concealed carry are null and void.

Ultimately, the ‘laws’ on the books are ALREADY null/void as you so noted: ‘Constitutional carry’ aka 2nd Amendment.
*THIS* is where I wish Fedzilla would come into play; protecting the Rights of the Citizens from the abuse of the State(s). But, it too violates any number of same\additional Rights and authorities than the States!
We have been traveling this path for at least a hundred years.
“Progressives” argued that the Constitution was outdated, but that the amendment process was too slow and difficult, so they deliberately worked at undermining the constitutional order and finding ways to obscure and ignore constittutional limits.
It has been very deliberate. We are on the cusp of reversing much of this. If Trump appoints two originalists/textualists, the Supreme Court will have an originalist/textualist majority for the first time in 80 years.
Trump has also broken the mediacracy, which controlled the information flow in the United States. We are already seeing results from that, and I expect President Trump to fracture the mediacracy into parts and set it to compete against itself to find errors, thus creating a capitalist/competitive base for freedom of speech. That has not really existed for 60 years or more. His administration is working on this daily. It will happen without legislation.
We can do much to facilitate these revolutionary developments. I expect most freepers are already engaged in doing so.
