get in before gun owners throw a fit

http://gunssavelives.net/blog/gun-laws/breaking-news-mississippi-judge-blocks-open-carry-bill-from-becoming-law-at-last-second/

Meh, open carry part of my state's constitution, but I prefer to keep it concealed.

I don't like drawing unwanted attention towards myself, unless there is a reason (example, pro gun political rally)

Really got to take part in a open carry statbucks events....

That's nice.

concealed carry is all that matters.

I would like to have open carry, but I would never do it - it's easier for someone to disarm you.Fightingfan

LOL open carry. The douchiest of douches.

I don't know why there is a law against open carry in the first place. You look like a douchebag and society will frown on you, but it's not like you're hurting anything. 

It's one of those unnecessary laws. It's not preventing crime.

I don't see how you could have a problem with those. Even with it being illegal to conceal or open carry won't stop somebody who wants to shoot up a place. Obviously one more law won't stop them. There are millions of concealed carriers in the country yet very few incidents each year. The vast majority are responsible and, in my opinion, paranoid, but I don't see a reason to stop them from carrying. 

If you only go off of what you hear in the news or from people posting on the internet you would think the USA is a shoot house with people pulling guns on each other constantly. It's not anywhere close to that. Wisconsin just got C&C laws a few years back and the amount of shootings outside of Milwaukee haven't changed. Milwaukee is a crap hole that has its own set of problems, the least of which is the availability of guns.

Why was this bill even proposed? Can you imagine if this was ever passed? The streets would look like GTA with the all citizens with weapons cheat activated.Shottayouth13-

[QUOTE="ThaneKrios28"] i want to own a tank that is weaponzied i mean if people can legally owns a ar-15 why shouldnt i be able to? it is for my protection afterallThaneKrios28

aren't allowed in the streets with them.

if you want to keep a tank on your private property, that's already legal.

[QUOTE="guynamedbilly"][QUOTE="ThaneKrios28"] heres the thing though the constitution states you have a right to bare arms to protect your home so why does the right wing assume it also covers public? wouldnt there have to be a amendment to change that from just defending homes to concealed carry in public?ThaneKrios28

It doesn't say anything about where. Just that you have to right to bear arms. What, do you think it should have to specify every single location where it's okay?

Indeed. I grew up in Alaska. EVERYBODY has guns. Very few carry them openly, but some do (I have). Certainly doesn't look like that.

There's someone sane in Mississippi?  This is news indeed!

Weird. I always thought that restrictions on concealed carry were harsher than those for open carry.

It would be nice to know what the Judge's reason was to block it. I wonder what he or she thinks of concealed carry.

Unlicensed open carry?

What is this, the old west?

Owning a weaponized tank (which can be legal to own with the right license) is not the same as owning a semi-automatic AR-15. They are totally differnt things. :|

Judges aren't supposed to make law....LJS9502_basic

Yup, which is why the judge BLOCKED something instead of MADE it.

im not against gun owners owning a weapon to protect there home and family but i do have an issue with concealed and open carry in public call me paranoid or w/e but it just takes one person to screw up and thats when we all will be back at square one on the gun debateThaneKrios28

That's because you're unreasonable.

Reasonable people don't hold the crimes of the individual over the people who haven't done anything.

I want you to reread what you wrote. You say you have an issue with concealed and open carry in public. Well, how the hell do you buy a weapon, carry it to your car and then from your car to your house if you do not carry it in public? How do you go from your house to your car and from your car to the firing range if you do not carry it in public? You just love to contradict yourself due to letting emotion over come logic.

Also, nowhere in the 2nd Amendment does it say that having weapons is only allowed in your house. As a matter of fact, many weapons are used for hunting which puts food on a hunter's table to eat. I suppose you do not want people to have the ability to hunt for food either due to your assinine restrictions of only keeping weapons in someones home.

How old are you really? You claim to be a taxpayer, but you honestly think like a teen with how you respond to stuff like this and the questions people ask of you to explain something related to the law and US Constitution.

for people who claim to be responsible gun owners you guys are so easy to get worked up. tell me something princess should a nutjob like alex jones own a weapon wile he is 247 paranoid?

hell should someone like that nfl player who got arrested be allowed to own a firearm even though he was linked with the bloods and is involved in 2 murders from last year? the patriots dropped him btw

but i guess you gun owners  think alike and say  well you know it was his god given right and we all should just stick together
