Default National Reciprocity

Every once in a while the Federal Government gets something right. Think about drivers license reciprocity. If we didn't have it you would have to look on a map or something to see if your drivers license is good in a state you are about to enter. This bill reads like your carry permit , like your drivers license, would be good in every state. Of course, you have to follow the rules of the road or face the consequences. Carrying would be the same. The states could not make laws to restrict out-of-staters with out restricting in-staters.

I don't care if the NRA, GOA or if Heston rises fron the grave and endorses it.

Under no circumstances will I support any opportunity for Chuck Schumer and the rest of the gun-grabbers in Washington to be meddling with anything to do with my Tennessee carry permit.

No matter how well meaning... The Feds have no business fooling with this, it's an issue for the states. And the opportunity for unintended consequences is enough to reject it out of hand. No thanks.

It's an interesting metaphor, save for the fact that DL reciprocity is a compact between the various states that participate, some states to lesser degrees than others. The Feds aren't the controlling body. You do have to "look on a map" in some instances. For example, try getting a speeding ticket in OH with a MI drivers license - not a pleasant exchange in that instance.
