And that is my point, as well. We have a Federal law stating we can own weapons.

The courts have held that the States have the right to determine how they may be displayed/carried in day to day situations. The environment of Texas is somewhat different than that of New Jersey as are the people and their beliefs. If enuf New Jerseyites support concealed carry of handguns, or legal carry of weapons in their cars, it will be enacted.

What we do not want...at least here...is for the federal government to make that determination for us.

I think one should worry more when people are lining up to get out of a country rather than into it.

If they're sneaking in, we must be doing something right.
