Personally this affects myself immediately more than anything going on with government. If they rule that its unconstitutional for states to ban firearms I will sigh a relief. Personal safety has become a joke for people working in particular areas. It can be more dangerous than Baghdad. More people from the midwest and south would be interested working projects in the Big Apple for example. I typically carry a handgun and don't necessarily feel safer but find comfort in knowing I got a chance to equal someone looking for prey. On the flip side I dont have issue with the wait and background checks. I do feel its unconstitutional to charge a fee for a carry permit. Permit? When did it become permission. Granted it may be a great idea for the training and such but it separates the haves from have nots. The old man in the 20' travel trailer living in a trailer park should be able to carry even if his finances don't agree with state laws to generate extra income. Back on the other side of the arguement I have never desired or understood owning an assault rifle. I'm sure people enjoy shooting em but a 22 provides a similar pleasure. After WWII it proved obvious that noone was going to invade us. The best option available was to the Japanese and they declined. So the militia factor has to be ownership of firearms out of fear for our own government??? They are vital in movements to block laws it just so happens we are on the same side.
Will be interesting how this shapes up.
