| How's this for a fix? Add, "...persons openly carrying holstered handguns retain all of the protections incident to the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution." |

An even better fix would be to eliminate the requirement for a concealed carry license for open carry. Then LEO would not have to stop someone to see their permit because a permit would not be a requirement.
Pennsylvania and quite a few other states have no license requirement for open carry and have not experienced any problems by the people engaged in open carry. The only problem seems to be when some homophobe calls the police and the police respond aggressively and illegally to disarm the innocent individual. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
