Oklahoma Governor Signs Bill Eliminating Concealed Permit Requirement
27 Feb 2019

Oklahoma joins Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Dakota, South Dakota, West Virginia, Wyoming, and Vermont as the 15th state to declare the Second Amendment as an individual?s carry permit.
On December 14, Breitbart News reported that Oklahoma was on the verge of abolishing its carry permit requirement. Lawmakers tried to abolish the requirement under former Gov. Mary Fallin (R), but she vetoed their legislation. Stitt came into office voicing his support for eliminating the permit requirement.
Tulsa World reported that Stitt stated at the time of signing the legislation, ?As I traveled all over the state to all 77 counties, I heard from Oklahomans all over that they wanted us to protect their right to bear arms. I think the best defense for a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.?
Democrat State Sen. Carri Hicks opposed the elimination of the permit requirement, saying, ?I think this particular law is further opening the gate to some devastation on [women and children].?

The government has no rights. Only the people have rights which empowers the government.
We have enough gun laws, what we need is IDIOT control.
Blood makes you related. Loyalty makes you family.

Kinda nice to see open carry in the local WalMart.
So I see we have a Fudd on the boards.

At least you can conceal carry without a government hassle & payment all to protect yourself from "some people."

How constitutional carry is not a good thing is beyond me. Explain please.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
No,my position is it's pretty sad that supposedly"free men" get all giddy when their overlords give them permission to exercise a natural right. The piece of paper that grants them that permission (nothing more than the opinion of a politician backed by the threat of force) is just that,a piece of paper.
Possibly, although unlikely once the precedence and mindset has been set that one man holds a higher claim over another man's life and property.
I am (personally) all for "Constitutional Carry," in all States. It is a Right spelled out in the Constitution. Any States that thereby hold up that Right, and affirm it as a "Constitutional Right," have my support.
You are Pro Second Amendment, I take it? (Regardless of your [sometimes] somewhat vague Political views.) If not, why hang out here? Seriously.
I am sorry , if I missread your intent.
It seemed to me, that you were giving a hard time to a Member that was advocating "Constitutional carry," as being a good thing.
I am all for any State that advocates/affirms and upholds our Constitutional 2nd Amendment Rights.
