Montana becomes constitutional carry state
KFYR ^ | Feb. 18, 2021 | Hayley Boland

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) - Montana Governor Greg Gianforte signed a constitutional carry bill into law Thursday afternoon.

House Bill 102 allows Montana gun owners to carry a concealed firearm for self-defense throughout the state without written authorization from the government.

Supporters say it creates a single standard for the state. The new law allows guns to be carried on university campuses and in the state Capitol.

“Our Second Amendment-protected right to keep and bear arms is part of Montana’s, and our nation’s, rich heritage. We have a responsibility to preserve it,” Gianforte said.

Montana is now one of nearly 20 states with similar legislation.

That makes two more Constitutional carry states in the last two weeks.

Cheers to Montana and Utah!

Suppose I am shocked that Montana was not always this way.

Vermont is the only state that was always this way.

Which is a little shocking ... or should be.

Excellent! That’s 18 states now I believe that have constitutional carry. 3 more have become constitutional carry states in just the last couple years.

It is definitely a good thing, but I hope part of their motivation, is just to piss Joe off.

Man, I dunno. Since Idaho went constitutional carry we've had nothing but a bloodbath, bodies all over the place, automatic weapons fire punctuating the night, a complete nuclear Armageddon...

Oh, wait. That never happened. Actually, nothing happened.

Yeah, but just imagine the mayhem if, say, a single big city like Chicago were to recognize "constitutional carry." I predict that literally hundreds of people would then be shot yearly - in drive-bys, drug-deals gone wrong, and even at funerals!

Hey, wait a minute...

Regards,

I had hoped during Trump's first two years that the Congress would enact a law requiring States to honor the CCWs of other States -- a full faith and credit power. But this did not happened.

I can see the Usurper signing legislation to ban concealed carry throughout the United States.

I seriously believe that in some places there would be a sudden uptick in shootings.

Then, it would fall off dramatically...

I’m all for Nationwide Constitutional Carry at the state level.
