<p>[quote user="schlimm"]</p> <p> </p> <blockquote> <div><img src="/TRCCS/Themes/trc/images/icon-quote.gif" /> <strong>Sam1:</strong></div> <div> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>With the exception of Connecticut, every state in the union permits the carrying of concealed weapons under certain conditions.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p> </p> </div> </blockquote> <p> </p> <p>Wrong. Illinois does not permit concealed carry and this was recently affirmed in Federal court as constitutional. [/quote]</p> <p>You are correct. Also, I overlooked the fact that DC does not permit carrying a concealed weapon under any circumstances. </p> <p>Connecticut appears to have changed its stance, perhaps because of the horrendous crime committed there. A doctor's doctor's family was wiped out by two nut cases. As a result, according to the Hartford Courant, Connecticut decided to retain the death penalty. Perhaps it also decided to modify its stance regarding concealed or at least licensed weapons because of the crime, which is one of the most heinous crimes to come to my attention. </p> <p>So lets see. One state for sure, DC, and possibly another don't permit the carrying of a concealed weapon under any circumstance. That leaves how many that permit a weapon to be carried under strictly defined circumstances? </p>
