My parents live in South Carolina so I am spending alot of time over there because they have medical issues right now. As soon as I cross the SC-GA border I have to remove my gun from it's holster and place it in the glove box. We needed the law that would allow me to protect myself everywhere if I am cleared to carry in Ga. The current law allows states to say "you can only protect yourself if you are a citizen of this state. All others...tough luck. I have a CC permit and carry in Ga.

I am ex police officer and retired fed officer and I would like to see everyone carry, it saved my butt more than once. If we don't have a watchdog group ( NRA and others) you could see the 2 Amendment go away and we do not want that It seems you may have missed a point that if you carry a concealed weapon and get caught you will lose the weapon, put on watch list and have a weapons charge which could lead to a felony.

What happens when government decides to change the rules "x" amount of years from now? It isn't like they haven't done that before. Too many firearms owners forget that there has been confiscation in America. What is to stop government from increasing the requirements and cost of the permit, pushing many people out of the system? Do we really want the influential and wealth to be the only ones with an ability to defend their family and themselves? I wish the NRA would get off their CCW promotion campaign and stop shoving them down people's throats. They are playing a dangerous game and they actually hurt RKBA enthusiast in states like Arizona. Example: Az's Restaurant Carry law ended up for CCW permit holders only because the "Parking Lot" bill was a higher priority. Just my 2 cents.
