Would you vote FOR a bill legalizing licensed open carry in Arkansas, similar to Tennessee’s law?

Unsure [3]

Comment

I would like to know about the Tennessee law. However, I believe in the safety and gun training before anyone is allowed to carry a handgun. Similar to what we do with our students in the hunter education classes.

Would you vote FOR a bill legalizing the open carry of firearms in rural, unincorporated areas only for persons engaged in hunting, fishing, hiking and camping activities?

No [2]

Comment

I would vote for this if the person had safety training or a concealed weapons license. I would not want to turn anyone lose with a gun around other campers without proper training.

Would you vote FOR a bill legalizing unlicensed open carry by non-felons in Arkansas?

No [A2]

Comment

I believe, as stated before, people need safety training first.

Would you vote FOR a bill legalizing unlicensed concealed carry in Arkansas while still protecting the ‘CHCL’ program for those wishing to have reciprocity with other states?

No [A2]

Comment


Would you vote FOR a bill that allowed churches to decide whether congregants may carry a concealed weapon – and if so, who may carry them?  Currently, the law specifically forbids concealed carry in churches.

Yes [A1]

Comment

I think that could be a local decision. I hope I never feel the need for a gun in church. And they must be a licensed conceal carry citizen of Arkansas.

Would you vote FOR an employer parking lot bill that would protect workers with an Arkansas CHCL from being fired for having a legally possessed firearm in their vehicles, for the purpose of defending his or herself coming to/from work?

Yes [A1]

Comment

They must have a concealed license. I have a concealed license and thought the training was very valuable. I grew up in the country and have handled guns all my life. However, I learned safety and laws in the training that I did not know. You can never know too much when handling guns.

In a written opinion, the Arkansas State Attorney General said our current journey law needs to be defined. Would you vote FOR a bill that defined a “journey” under Arkansas gun law as leaving one’s “voting precinct”?

Yes [A1]
