Oklahoma became the 25th state in the Union to permit open carry of loaded firearms. Imagine that.
And Illinois? Still stuck in the Ice Age.
What was the vote? In the Oklahoma House of Representatives: 85-3. Wow! And in the Senate? 33-10.
On May 15 Gov. Mary Fallin signed it into law, granting law-abiding citizens the right to carry loaded guns either openly or concealed. The new law takes effect on November 1.
Well, folks, we're surrounded. Will our legislators give up?
Maybe Illinois should create the Great State of Chicago. The rest of Illinois wants concealed carry. Just put up a fence around Chicago to keep the criminals in and us out, and let 'em have at it. The Democratic legislators in Chicago will be safe; no criminal would dare attack them. That might open the door for a successor to decide that maybe, just maybe, law-abiding citizens ought to have the right to defend themselves.
