Kansas House Passes Constitutional Carry (Vanity)

There will be blood in the streets. Road rage will be solved with guns. It will be like the wild west (which BTW was nowhere nears as bad as portrayed)yada yada yada........

How do you reciprocate with other states that require a license if you don’t have one?

You don't. if you want to carry in other states you'd need the Kansas license.

How do you reciprocate with other states that require a license if you don’t have one?

You get a license. You just don't need it is you're carrying in a Constitutional Carry state, but they will still issue you one for reciprocation purposes.

I hope that you know that someone will come and bail you out. You will also need a very good lawyer, and you will need to have a very hefty bank account to cover all of your legal bills.

If a state does not recognize my Texas license then I would like to see Texas not honor drivers licenses from those states.

We have just such a law being written in Wyoming, and it goes a bit further. Neither will the license plates from such other states in rebellion to the U.S. Constitution be recognized, and we reckon after a few dozen out-of-state visitors have their cars with the phony plates crushed, the word will get back home right quick.

You will also need a very good lawyer, and you will need to have a very hefty bank account to cover all of your legal bills.

Not in Wyoming: From the 2010 Wyoming Firearms Freedom Act:

(c) The attorney general may defend a citizen of

2 Wyoming who is prosecuted by the United States government
3 for violation of a federal law relating to the manufacture,
4 sale, transfer or possession of a firearm, a firearm
5 accessory or ammunition manufactured and retained
6 exclusively within the borders of Wyoming.

Great, so now you can go to Wyoming, but can you drive from Kansas to Wyoming without passing through some state that won’t throw you in the Hoosgow?

And of course, our practical problem here in Eastern Kansas is that we don’t much of have an issue when we head down to the feed store, but when you go over to Kansas City, MO, the situation changes.

Not quite yet. But it's being worked on.

And of course, our practical problem here in Eastern Kansas is that we don’t much of have an issue when we head down to the feed store, but when you go over to Kansas City, MO, the situation changes.

We have that problem in Cheyenne and some of the tourist-trap resort areas as well. One possible response is a state-level denial of funds for any governmental entity that deprives citizens of their rights under state law. After that, comes this example from Indiana:
