Always speak of your rights in the affirmative, in the sense of freedom and liberty that we were intended to live in. Although the constitution is nearly extinct, our rights stll are our rights and our rights exist outside of the constitution and BOR. We just have to fight to end all forms of infringement.

The second amendment is clear and unambiguous.

I am not trying to strike an argument but I have to disagree. If it is truly our right to carry then we should not need a permission slip (license) and should be able to carry how we choose. However since we need a permission slip it is our privilege granted to us by the state not our right granted to us through the constitution. We do not need a license for our rights of life, liberty, pursuit of hapiness or free speech because they are our rights just like the RKBA.

Again not intended to offend just how I view it.
I understand your view and take no offense.

If unconstitutional legislation is passed (yes it can and has happened believe it or not.) and signed into law that says any LEO can enter your home anytime without a search warrant you still have the right against unlawful searches and seizures but the law can still be passed. It does not change the fact that your right is an enumerated right, you have just had that right infringed - legislated away.

Under your stated thought process all a government has to do to change a right to a privilege by legislation and you have no more rights.

That makes no sense but if that is the way you want to understand your rights then that is your right too.

I prefer to hold my rights a little more closely than that. I too believe you do not need a permission slip to exercise that right but that is the fact of life we are FORCED to live by at the present moment.

Just because a right infringed is perceived as a privilege does not make it a privilege. It is still a right and to casually throw it out there as a privilege just shows submission to the antis.

Re: Open-Carry is a right, but concealed carry is not?

Open or concealed, any licensing requirement is an infringement and is unconstitutional.

No permission card should be required to exercise any right.

If hall passes were required for journalists to peck on a keyboard we would have no firearm infringements.
