At the outset let me say I support the open carry of firearms. We have a Constitution with a 2nd Amendment in the Bill of Rights that says the right of the people to keep and 'bear' arms shall not be infringed.
Now, given that we have such an inalienable right which the Constitution protects, then why should any citizen be made to feel that they must hide their firearms with 'concealed carry?'
Having said that, prudence often dictates that firearms be concealed...common sense, you know. But that in no way suggests that in this country with a history that clearly affirms citizen firearms we should somehow be made to feel that we are required to hide something we have a perfect right to 'bear.' That is an individual decision that should be left up to the individual gun owner.
As much as I respect Clayton Cramer, I think he got it wrong on this issue. But Vanderboegh, in his unmistakable style, puts it all into focus much more clearly than I. Read Cramer's article and the Vanderboegh response by clicking here.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 9/11/09
Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:
Via The War on Guns, Oath Keepers posts its itinerary during the massive citizen march on Washington, DC tomorrow. Our friends from Sipsy Street Irregulars and Western Rifle Shooters Association will be there.
David Codrea reports that a candidate for the U.S. Senate from the state of Nevada deserves the support of gun owners. Her name is Sharron Angle. Read all about it.
Say Uncle and a bunch of others, including Ride Fast and Shoot Straight, Sebastian, The Wandering Minstrel and Traction Control are now in Reno for the annual Gun Bloggers Rendezvous.
Mr. Completely provides the first report from Reno.
The Rustmeister has an excellent roundup of the various posts on 9/11 from the gun bloggers. It is well worth the time to take a look and click on the links.
Robb Allen has written THE must-read of the day! This is good stuff, and if you don't read it, you are as dumb as an old mule staring at a new gate.
Nicki is back, I'm glad to say, after I thought she had fallen off the face of the earth. Glad to have her back!
Way Up North reports all of the latest news from the great state of Alaska, including an update on Sarah Palin.
The Newbius Papers posts an excellent refresher on the Constitution and Presidential succession. This may turn out to be more important than any of us thought, given that a rising tide of voices are calling for the removal of Obama from office, given his outright assault on the supreme law of the land--the U.S. Constitution.
Alphecca reports that the FBI has issued a study which concludes there is no such thing as a 'gun show loophole,' despite that claim by anti-gun bigots and their organizations.
Free in Idaho has a story that reminds us that leftwing wackos are dangerous. Read it.
Meeting on the Green says, 'Congressman Joe Wilson speaks for ME!' Me too, my friend.
Pax Parabellum reports that the open carry movement has won another one. Great news!
Texas Fred provides a moving remembrance of a lady who lost her life on 9/11.
Walls of the City has this memorial from Project 2996.
The Black Sphere, a new blog to the Roundup, has an excellent post on the ACORN scandal that would be wise to read. By the way, the blogger here appeared on Glenn Beck on Fox News yesterday. Excellent stuff!
And now, for some therapeutic humor, The Old Broad posts the finest political cartoons on the Internet. Enjoy...

Second Amendment News Roundup for 9/4/09
Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:
CNS News reports shocking new information on Obama's 'Regulatory Czar,' Cass Sunstein. It seems he advocated for removing organs from patients WITHOUT consent from the patient or the family!
Mike McCarville says the alarm bells are ringing for Congressional Democrats with regard to the upcoming midterm elections next year.
By the way, McCarville is celebrating 30 years as the publisher and commentator for The McCarville Report. Congratulations, Mike. I've often said that Mike McCarville is one of the most respected and trusted names among reporters in the news business today.
Alphecca reports that the rules for the safe handling of guns also applies to cannons!
Around O Town has video and commentary on the plan by thousands of parents to keep their kids home on Sept. 8 to keep them from being subjected to the Obama indoctrination session.
Take look at THIS at 1 With a Bullet. What boneheaded numbskull thought this was a good idea???
Bloviating Zeppelin highlights the fact that the Commie Chinese flag is going up at the White House on Sept. 20. Wonder of Obami is gonna leave it up once the Commie visitors go back to Chiney.
Billy Beck reports a story that may point to the coming hoof-beats of civil war.
Dustin's Gun Blog has a video of Tim Evans from the UK discussing govt-run healthcare.
Free in Idaho reports the expected reaction to the state-sanctioned wolf hunt in Idaho.
Gun Pundit reports an incident of yet another armed crime that happened in a 'gun-free zone.' Has anyone noticed most of these things happen in 'gun-free' areas?
Meeting on the Green alerts us to 'state-sponsored kidnapping' in an assault on parents who homeschool their children!
Pax Parabellum notes that there are various and sundry reasons for our somewhat lower life-expectancy rates that have NOTHING to do with the healthcare system. Healthcare is just a convenient scapegoat for statists to justify their march toward government control of all of life.
Ride Fast and Shoot Straight announces the 'cash for klunker handguns' program.
The Newbius Papers has a must-read entitled, 'What If?'
Traction Control posts a great video demonstrating the firing of a fully automatic machine gun.
You won't believe your eyes when you see this head-scratching phenom at Notoriously Conservative. If you ever had any doubt that Obama supporters are delusional, this video will totally erase that doubt.
Walls of the City alerts us to yet another example of politicians acting like overlords.
Texas Fred has an update on local resistance to Obama's address to schools on Sept. 8.
From Days of our Trailers: "Why the Confusion on 'Assault Weapons' Part 2.
Conservative Libertarian Outpost writes a good one on 'the Cowboy Libertarian, Post-Turtles.' Take a look.
From Sebastian: 'How a Glock Saved a Blogger's Life.'
Say Uncle provides an update on the open carry story in Idaho.
Vanderboegh exposes how much money the jackbooted thugs of the ATF are costing the taxpayers. Take a look and be prepared to get revved up with anger.
Western Rifle Shooters Association posts one on the economy that should really get you livid, just in case you're not already revved up enough.
David Codrea asks, 'Who can we trust with guns, who can we trust with freedom?'
And now, my friends, the best political cartoons on 'Algore's internets.' The Old Broad has 'em. Enjoy...
