AZ recently changed the law to allow legal gun owners to carry firearms concealed without a permit, thus joining VT, AK, and several other states (although more limited in scope).  Dozens of states already allowed (and still do) legal gun owners to carry firearms open (not concealed) without a permit and that's been the standard in some states since before the nation was legally founded.

Is this law bad or crazy?  I don't know but it puts the laws in AZ closer to what most gun owners think of when they think of the 2nd Amendment.  AZ still has too many gun restrictions for me and so does the state I live in, NH.  However, it was a step in the right direction.  Maybe some day states like AZ and NH won't have any gun laws other than the 100s of federal laws?  That seems like a more Constitutional way to go.

As for driving, you don't need a Learner’s Permit in NH to learn how to drive.  In fact, you cannot get one as we don’t have Learner’s Permits in NH.  Insurance is option, although it certainly isn’t required.  The same goes for seat belt usage.  However, we do have driver's licenses.  I'd like to see the NH driver's license turned into to a license that lasts until people turn 70.  I get it, there should be a short test to get a DL but after that, you shouldn't have to get it renewed.  Of course, most people would get it renewed from time to time because they would lose their license, move and so on.  That is something that people from AZ are more familiar with than those from other states.

How can you be a "legal" gun owner if you don't have a permit? That sounds like an oxymoron. And how can you be allowed to own a gun without passing some sort of psychiatric evaluation? That's just retarded!
