    Er, no I'm not. Weather or not we agree one how it's written or its intention. How the law is enforced is pretty much exactly how I've described it. Each state varies it's laws a little but the basic right to own a gun is derived from that amendment.

    Yes, I know. I know how it's interpreted, but that doesn't change what it says. As you say, we can discuss what was intended, but just because the law is enforced a certain way, does not prove that reflects the original intention.

      And for what reason would someone do that ?

      The reason I do it is to not be in violation of the tons of laws we have regulating where you can have a gun in your vehicle when you are going somewhere. I go target shooting with friends which means I need to take my gun along in the car. Laws covering how/where you have your gun in a vehicle vary by county and city. Some places require it be unloaded, some require it to not be in reach of the driver. Some require it to not be in plane sight. I didn't want to worry about what location I was at or what minor differences in transporting my gun I might encounter. Having the concealed permit allows me to not worry if I put the gun in the backseat, the trunk, or my coat pocket. I can give you several other answers but you probably wont like any of them: Scouts motto, always be prepared. Because I can. Chicks dig it. Because I like guns. Last but not least... because it makes people like you angry.

      I'm not angry, I'm just bemused.

        That might have actually been New Hampshire. I think the rich bastid that owned Cabletron had a tank. Yep Levine was his name and I guess he chased a Domino's Pizza delivery boy up the driveway with the damn thing.

        there was (still is i think) an abbott self propelled gun (tracked with a turret so looks like a tank to most people) painted bright yellow, that drives around London. and there is a company that as a "pink" abbott and a white apc refitted as a limo that runs in london (oh and a t34 on waste ground in Bermondsy)

        Go away and research the subject, analyze the options for and against, understand the problem and them come back when you agree with me.

          no. They'd call it the Wagon or something... They call theirs Chariot...[^] That tank is nto quite so bad ass, but still scary. (Edit, I was thinking of a different tank that they use to use.)

          I believe the French called one of their latest, more advanced tank a LeClerc which just makes me think of [Monsieur Roger LeClerc](<a href=)
