I am free to carry a concealed weapon in many places, but there are restrictions, and for the most part they are there for a good reason. I can't carry into places that serve alcohol, big public gatherings like concerts, and airports.
Isolated in an ideal world, and looking at it from a strict constitutionalist mindset, my right to carry should not be infringed regardless of my location, so I see the position you take. But, I know this is not an ideal world, and even though I wish all gun owners were as responsible as I try to be, I know that is not the case.
The laws have been well promulgated with regard to weapons and airports ... anyone that says they didn't know they had a loaded pistol in their carry-on is someone that I do not wish to have a gun at all. He was careless, and firearms and 'careless' do not mix.
Here in Florida (and many other states), you can CCW in places that serve alcohol (unless it's a bar) and in "public gatherings".
I haven't seen any evidence to suggest that gun crimes are more numerous in states with loose CCW laws, than those with strict CCW laws. The bottom line is that CCW holders don't commit crimes. Criminals, on the other hand, ignore and even take advantage of "no carry zones".
Contrary to your suggestion, a bunch of tyrants telling Free Americans where they can't carry is not for a "good reason". It has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with giving the sheeple a false sense of security while scoring cheap political points for themselves.

Although I haven't mentioned it yet on this thread, it's also a "Right to self-defense issue".
People have a Right to self-defense that no government or no person can take away. The most effective method of self defense is carrying a loaded firearm. When a government tells you that you can't carry on planes, they are infringing upon your Right to self-defense, especially since the government has proven their ineffectiveness at defending us on aircraft.
Why is it "a good reason" for you to be prohibited from defending yourself in precisely those locations where you are more likely to come in contact with predatory goblins? (Whom, in your ideal world, recognize the fact that they're in a world of low-hanging fruit when they enter those venues!)
