Missouri may finally get a concealed carry bill, if they can convince the governor not to veto it.

"It's a way to get our foot in the door and maybe modify and change it later," said William Woodward of Columbia. "Everybody that says I have to have a permit to carry a gun is violating the U.S. Constitution."

Hopefully they'll remember that if it gets passed. far too many states promoted a shall issue permit to carry concealed as a first step. Sadly most view it as a destination rather than a beginning.

Here's a previous blog on some of the problems with concealed carry permits. & here's another previous blog.
