Concealed Carry Stuff
The Chicago Tribune actually presents the other side of the concealed carry debate without all the usual anti-gun hysteria the usually put in an article:
But what really distinguished the crowd was how devoutly law-abiding it was–and exceedingly polite too. As banquet organizer Alan Korwin jested in a news release after the dinner: “Food Service Very Slow But Waiters All Still Alive.”
That was, in fact, the message the gathering last month was intended to drive home: Ordinary gun owners don’t fit the wild-eyed caricatures often drawn by anti-gun groups. And they ought to be trusted to carry their weapons, openly or concealed, wherever they wish.
Yes, that Chicago Tribune
Also, The WaPo discusses Virginia’s rather silly concealed carry provisions:
Arriving for lunch at a Topeka’s Steakhouse ‘n’ Saloon not far from his suburban home, Van Cleave confronted another choice, an annoying one. Because the restaurant serves alcohol, Virginia law says he can’t carry a concealed weapon inside. He would have to wear it in plain view. So he chose a different holster, one that fits inside his belt, leaving the gun exposed. Then he sighed.
And this may mark the first time the WaPo addressed the Virginia statutes without acting hysterical.
