This is the wrong approach. Let the law be passed and then demand the same right for every law-abiding citizen.

You both have good ideas, but in that approach, there will always be that one little weasel government bureaucrat that will 'interpret' the law in a way that is harmful to the ordinary citizen.

There can be no 'favorites' or 'protected class'. Once it starts, it won't stop. Just look at the recent history of all these new gun laws.

I tend to disagree I would much prefer a law that guarantees acceptance of any CCW issued by one state in all states as driver's liscenses from one state are valid in other states. This approach is constitutionally sound due to the full faith and credit laws and the interstate commerce clause and the equal protection clause. Anything less is not only Constitutionally suspect it will remove much of the impetus for change of the current law. If the Congress passes police only legislation of this type then they will have already addressed the issue and there will not be a politically influental sponsor of the legislation.

Stay well - Stay safe - Stay armed - Yorktown
