Nationwide Ban on CCW?
Posted: Fri Mar 07, 2008 12:57 am
Unless I missed this posted elsewhere already, I have been reading about stances on a nationwide ban CCW by either Hillary or Obama. I know we cant predict the future but I am curious if either get into office how likely it would be for Obama's Anti-2nd Amendment proposals to become law? Nationwide ban on CCW, most specifically.
Is this a real threat and likely to happen if one of them gets into the White House?
I do not even understand the thinking behind those who want to impose such a ban. Allowing people to have CHL's and lawfully carry has not increased the crime rate or violent shootings from what I have seen! At least not by CHL holders. Losing the privilege of being able to have a CHL is an AWFUL thought.
EDTED: I believe this should go in the Federal 2008 forum. I moved it there. MADS, I hope that was right. Here is the thread:
