KY Governor To Look At Loosening Carry Laws At Capitol

According to firearmchronicles

When a group of Second Amendment advocates protested for their gun rights while carrying firearms, the anti-gun establishment lost their collective stuff. It was an affront, something some thought of as even worse than Richmond. How dare Kentuckians use their First and Second Amendment rights like that.

However, at the end of the day, nothing happened. Despite the “more guns mean more crime” rhetoric we routinely hear from anti-gunners, there wasn’t any crime or violence. Not in Richmond and not in Kentucky’s capitol.

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said Thursday his administration is evaluating rules about what people can and cannot bring into the Capitol, but that any changes the administration makes won’t restrict the ability to bring guns into the Capitol. “We believe that the rules right now, if followed, are appropriate, at least as it comes to firearms, which are constitutionally protected,” Beshear said. “We need to take a look back at some other rules that have been put into place, whether they’re about umbrellas or other issues.” Under current rules, umbrellas are not allowed in the Capitol but anyone can openly carry a gun so long as they legally possess the firearm, except in the Supreme Court chambers, the House and Senate chambers and the House and Senate gallery.
