I fully support the right of law abiding citizens to carry everywhere. The lawless criminal WILL NOT abide by any regulation prohibiting carry, so it behooves our state to allow those who abide by the law to have the ability to carry legally.

One other point is that, since the state allows the legal carry of a handgun, it presents the possibility of confusion if there are certain areas which are "off limits". You end up constantly watching for the imaginary boundaries to keep from violating the law!

I understand there are those who have a complete, yet unsubstantiated fear of any gun. There is, however, no contitutional ammendment that states those people have a right to "feel safe" just to prevent  another person from excersizing a guaranteed right.
