Opponents of right-to-carry laws often say "we don't need any more guns on the street." I often wondered what they meant, because I keep my eyes open and I never see any guns on the street. But today I saw this story about . . . well, a gun on the street. But it was in New Jersey, a state with...

Currently, Virginia nonresident permits are valid under the statute Norton, I am glad you asked that question. What follows is my layman's opinion. I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice. But I personally have no fear of carrying concealed in West Virginia today, on a Virginia...

This bill to invalidate nonresident permits is still on the governor's desk . . . Keep those faxes and e-mails going in, urging a veto of this discriminatory, anti-tourism bill, HB 3074. Governor Manchin has until April 4 to sign or veto this retrograde bill. The contact information again...

Avoid Colorado or open carry -- and urge West Virginia governor to veto HB 3074 I followed the progress of SB 34 through the legislature. It probably would have been possible to amend the bill so that it would have applied the new residency requirement only to Colorado residents, but the local...

On March 22, the West Virginia legislature sent to Governor Joe Manchin (D) House Bill 3074. He has until April 4 to decide what to do with it (but he may not take that long). This bill makes a number of changes in the state's reciprocity law. The West Virginia Citizens Defense League has...

The following article about permits in Iowa (and Johnson County in particular) appeared in the Iowa City Press-Citizen for March 24, 2007. The article does not discuss non-resident permits, which do exist, but which are issued by the Iowa Department of Safety rather than by the sheriffs...

jlbraun wrote above, "I see that you have to get a CO permit if you're here for 90 days as a resident, but if you're a tourist it won't affect you." Under SB 34, tourists are out of luck, unless they have a permit from their home state, and unless that home state has reciprocity with...
