We the People have the right to keep and bear arms. It says it right here on this old Constitution.
U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- The coming implementation of Constitutional Carry in Oklahoma has served to emphasize the logical flaws in the arguments of those opposed.
Constitutional Carry is the removal of restrictions on the carry of handguns in most public places. It restores the state of the law to a close approximation of the law as it existed when the Constitution was signed or the Bill of Rights ratified. At that time, no permits were required to carry handguns either concealed or openly.
Constitutional Carry has been restored in 14 other states over the last 16 years. Vermont has always had Constitutional Carry. There has not been an increase in homicide or violent crime in the states that have restored Constitutional Carry.
The opponents of Constitutional Carry in Oklahoma filed a lawsuit against the implementation of the law. The lawsuit claims the law violated the Oklahoma Constitutional requirement for each law to address a single subject. Second Amendment supporters have characterized the lawsuit as a “Hail Mary” pass, unlikely to succeed.
The lawsuit includes allegations that Constitutional Carry in Oklahoma would be dangerous.
Constitutional issues are not about policy differences, or they should not be. Policy issues are to be decided in the legislative process. Courts are not supposed to be super-legislators.

The opponents of the Constitution already put an ineligible usurper in office despite the Constitution clearly saying natural born citizen only as President.
Natural born citizens are NATURALLY citizens because they could not be anything else, born here of citizen parents.
The children of foreign nationals are PRCEISELY who the founders were excluding.
Some of the opponents of the Constitution are right here on FreeRepublic.
The Plaintiffs in this lawsuit first tried to get a state question/referendum on the ballot to try and overturn the law. They didn’t even come close to securing the requisite number of signatures on their petition to require a vote. They weren’t even in the ball park. So...the citizens elected representatives and a governor, who all campaigned on passing and signing constitutional carry...the citizens refused to sign petitions to over rule the law...so these libs are suing. One of the plaintiffs is a state representative. A lib of course.
Yes.
Where did the money for the referendum and the lawsuit come from?
My best guess is it is Michael Bloomberg money.
Having billionaire who is ideologically committed to the disarmament of the population is a big problem.
Patients Loomin we will definitely get a court test if they try to run a Trump kid.
