“Today we must vote, and when in doubt, I believe that if we err, we ought to do so on the side of freedom and the continued protection of our most basic constitutional rights"
-Senate President Susan Wagle
Quote:
People could carry a concealed firearm without a permit or training under a bill approved by the Kansas Senate on Thursday.
Senate Bill 45, which passed 31-7, would make Kansas a “constitutional carry” state, grouping it with Alaska, Arizona, Vermont and Wyoming. Montana requires no permit outside city limits.
Sen. Jacob LaTurner, R-Pittsburg, who carried the bill, called it common sense.
“I think it’s a very logical step for the Legislature to take,” he said. “We allow open carry. We allow concealed carry if you’re hunting or fishing. I think this makes a lot of sense.”
Why do people even need to conceal and carry guns when they're out and about?
On the contrary, why would they conceal and carry guns when they're in their own house? They could just place their gun openly on the counter beside them.
