As promised, Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin has signed legislation to allow citizens over the age of 21 in the Commonwealth to carry a concealed firearm without a permit, bringing the number of states with so-called “Constitutional Carry” to 16.
The law takes effect in July. Bevin is the third governor this year to sign such legislation, the other two being South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt. All three are Republicans. |

It is enlightening that 15 states trust their law abiding citizens in this manner.
Unlike NY, NJ, Illinois and another dozen states that treat their law abiding citizens like criminals. |

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) |
