Don't you people believe that it's time to change the way things work?
The right to carry them?
It's an absolute right. The right to defend one's self. I've got a CC License for my handgun, and all though I don't always go places with my handgun, it's nice to know I can.
And as I understand personal reasons are not exactly applicable to this debate so I'll let the US Supreme Court's cases of District of Columbia v. Heller and McDonald v. Chicago say it for me.
The 2nd Amendment protects an individuals right to possess and own firearms. It also protects the individuals rights to defend themselves, their family, and their property.
The 7th Circuit of the US Court of Appeals, has also found that the Illinois's handgun/concealed carry ban was unconstitutional last week, and that Illinois has 180 days to change their standing within the matters of Right to Carry.
