Good for Iowa.

Indiana needs to get it’s act together. Last I heard the bill was stalled in the senate and even then Holcomb will have to be strong armed.

Had an interesting conversation about this.

I totally support the bill, and will continue to have a CCW permit.

My lawyer is not sure how the liability will change between a permit and non permit carry, and suggests that I not be a test case.

He is also for permit less carry, but in todays climate says it probably going to be one shooting away from being banned as oppression.

Excellent! Oklahoma joined the club last year. Utah and Montana so far this year and now Iowa. Tennessee and Indiana next. I know a similar bill has been introduced in Louisiana.

We need to get much more of the country - and certainly all of the South - to move to constitutional carry. This is a great positive step for freedom.
