I just learned on a CNN web page that "Barack Obama: Supports national law against carrying concealed weapons, with exceptions for retired police and military personnel." http://edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008...ssues.gun.html

That made me ask the question "Would I still carry anyway?"

With the exception of occasionally speeding, I don't knowingly break the law. I make sure that I don't carry anywhere that it may possibly be illegal. But I have to think long and hard about totally giving up my right to carry just because some misguided politician happens to be in office.

We all know that it is possible to CC so that no one knows you are armed. If you are otherwise a respectable citizen and don't ever give an LEO a reason to search you, chances are you could carry discreetly for the duration of the stupid ban with no one the wiser.
