Arkansas Newest Member of Constitutional Carry States
From Living Not Surviving:
Constitutional carry is accompanied by a certain respect because of its legal proximity to the intentions of the Right to bear arms enumerated in the 2nd amendment, which has not authorized the barriers to gun ownership that currently exist in many states. Â Constitutional carry recognizes the individuals right to his life, and thus, the responsibility that comes with it, encouraging safer and more successful situations due to the encouragement of responsible individuals.

Gun rights people are accused of being paranoid rednecks who think the government is out to get them. And then there are the special labels reserved for people who love their assault rifles.

What you are about to read are my personal experiences and recollection of events as I saw them. While not all-inclusive, I think they lend a fiar account of what really happened on the ground.

While it is legal to open carry long arms in Texas, apparently a concerned citizen called when she saw the man carrying the weapon while on a Boy Scout hike with his son in the rural community.
