NC: Speaking from experience: "Ben Miles Jr. credits a bit of dumb luck for keeping him out of trouble three decades ago, and for making him a gun-rights advocate. Miles and a friend had been target shooting early in the day before he drove to Greensboro’s Central Library to do research for a term paper. Four young men followed Miles as he walked out of the library, giving the then-student a strong sense they were up to no good. Miles reached his car, and the .22 -caliber pistol on his passenger seat. “The group by which I was being accosted saw the firearm and to use a quote ... peace broke out all over the place,” Miles recalled last week as he lobbied at the General Assembly for what is loosely known as the castle doctrine bill."


Rights defended in Florida: "This session, the Legislature is processing three bills that protect those rights. One provides a mechanism to punish local officials and state agency administrators who intentionally violate the state firearms pre-emption law. It provides uniform gun laws and ensures everyone in Florida lives under the same gun laws, and will punish willful violators. The second will stop doctors from interrogating patients about gun ownership and refusing to treat sick children if the parents decline to answer questions that have nothing to do with medical care. Gun-ban politics have no place in examining rooms. The third will reform laws governing concealed weapons license holders. It will stop arrests of license holders if the firearm they are carrying is accidentally exposed. Some call it “open carry” because it allows license holders, and only license holders, to choose to openly carry their firearms."
