Gun Control & RKBA

First, I think that there should be a reasonably priced licensing requirement for anyone who wants to carry a firearm, whether open or concealed. This should include training in firearm operations, safety, storage, etc. The training should take approximately 4-6 hours and should include range time. I also think that the Supreme Court should hold that concealed carry is a constitutionally protected right and strike down all laws that bar concealed carry or make it practically impossible (i.e., DC's licensing requirement that requires "good cause" to carry).

Second, while I'm not adamantly opposed to open carry of long guns I'm not a real fan either. I'm not sure why anyone needs to open carry an AR-15 around town and I think it is often done as an intimidation method. I also think you could have someone call the police on you, which just makes everyone angry.
