    They should be able to carry. But they have no more right to protect themselves than we do! Give everyone the right!

      Thanks, Jim, but the bill by Tom Massie does exactly that. Massie would set up reciprocity for anyone with a concealed handgun permit.

    I would definitely support this Bill just as long as the reciprocity language is as stated in this video. I believe that the incident, in Virginia as tragic as it was, can be a catalyst for positive change in our gun Rights and laws. This should help save many live in the future.

    This should apply to all Americans, not just congress critters. We also need a federal ban on gun free zones.
