Legally, I think this goes to the 10th. What I find ironic is I owned more guns in CA than anywhere else I've ever lived.
However , the 2nd Amendment does not address concealed carry.
I firmly believe in open carry law myself.
However, the 2nd Amendment makes no limiting distinction in restricting the right to bear arms--be it open or conceal carry.
Neither government state or Federal has any constitutional authority to restrict open carry.
If any leeway is to be given it should only be in the conceal carry aspect--such as restrictions on convicted felons, (or medically verified crazy people), that are never applicable to law-abiding citizens that have no felony record...
That is as far as I would go--and even there I tend to think that if the felony did not involve any weapon use, the right to bear arms, should be restored when the time is done - that being disregarded if given early release...
The 9th circus is known to be made up of idiots, that get more wrong than right IMHO..-Tyr
