[QUOTE="henschman, post: 1681946, member: 4235"] Great news! I think all the hubbub over carry on campii, in gov't buildings, and ESPECIALLY in bars is way overblown. I am sure that after de-criminalization MS will experience no increase in mayhem, as has been the experience in other states that have de-criminalized these things. As far as bars go, I believe that they are one of the places where you are most likely to face an armed assailant. The fact that they are all gun-free zones in this state as well as in most others is an unacceptable and unabidable infringement of my rights. Do any of you think that these laws keep bad guys from carrying in a bar, any more than they keep bad guys from carrying in any other GFZ? And some of you goody two shoes who don't go go such places may not know this, but not everybody who goes to a bar goes there to get piss-in-the-closet drunk. Frequently I just go to hang out with friends, or shoot some pool, and only drink a few drinks over a few hours. Sometimes I don't even drink at all <gasp>! What you are doing by supporting prohibition of bar carry is saying that you know most people are responsible enough to do it without causing any problems, but that because SOME people wouldn't be, EVERYONE in that position should be stripped of their rights. There is only one word for that -- TYRANNY. People should simply be held accountable for their actions. If they decide to carry and they do something stupid and infringe on the rights of others in so doing, whether it is because of alcohol, or drugs, or just pure stupidity, they should be punished proportionally, and required to reimburse anyone hurt by their actions. But the ones who actually infringe on the rights of others are the only ones who should be punished... do do anything more would ITSELF be an infringement. That's pretty basic natural rights.
