I'm just wondering because we speak to people from all over. I think Texas is a yes. Mass. is yes. NY no. In fact if it can be used as a weapon, its illeagal here.

Many states have what are called Consealed Carry Laws. It basically permits a person to get a permit to carry a consealed firearm, usually a pistol. The particulars and restrictions vary from state to state, but generally you must apply to get the permi

Texas definitely is legal with a permit, as stated. While I understand it and support it, I also know it backfires and the innocent end up injured and killed instead of the criminal sometimes. I do believe in having a gun to protect my family, and would n

PA allows concealed weapons. Some guy shot himself in the foot in the restroom of the Cartwheel, a gay club near New Hope, PA. He managed to get to his car before phoning for help, then claimed he just pulled into the lot from the road. The blood trail fr

I'm just wondering why everyone is living in such a constant state of fear. I'm not against gun ownership, I just can't understand the paranoia.

I don't think ANY state allows ME to carry a gun.

Nevada! I sometimes will go to Reno for gun shows. And talk to the locals who frequently carry conciel.

I guess it would be a great world if we could live without fear. If you have been a victim of violence you would want to prevent it from happening again I guess. Living in Brooklyn NY, there is always a threat. I can't carry because everything that can be

Owning a gun doesn't translate to paranoia, or even fear for that matter. For many people, it is a practical matter of having the ability to protect yourself, or your family, should the occasion arise. No, every situation won't necessarily mean a gun woul

Too bad we can't live in a society where we did not have to feel threatened. I have a gun and will protect my family from an intruder if necessary. It is unfortunate, but you never know what can happen these days.

I think New Hampshire allows people

I think it's legal in Pennsylvania - so long as it isn't concealed, you have a permit, and you're not psychotically flailing about, threatening to bust a cap in a cops' ass and proclaiming to herald in an imminant race-war.

I was in a grocery store a few years ago -- I saw a lady with a gun on her hip, but she was not wearing any shoes.

I live in Phoenix, AZ.

Minnesota just passed a conceal carry law last year. ALOT of people aren't too happy about it. The only difference I've noticed is that alot of buisnesses now have signs in their windows banning guns.

Well said Grunch. [:)]

Beatschool, it sounds like you live near the Fruitville discrict in Oaktown? True they have done a lot of positive development in that part of Oakland over the past 5 years and I hope it continues to transform that community an
