South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has signed her first bill into law, the constitutional carry bill senate bill 47. While gun rights supporters are defending Noem's action today, one woman who fought against the bill said she's very frustrated.
The new law will now allow people to carry concealed handguns without a permit in the state but some wonder if this will affect public safety.
"We are frustrated and embarrassed that Governor Noem has decided to sign this into law," Chapter Leader for Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, Shannon Hoime said. |

She is so concerned.
She should take a look at the other states that have enacted constitutional carry. In spite of all the predictions of doom and despair it has not caused any problems where it has been enacted.
Of course, she would be against any sensible gun legislation that doesn't increase restrictions on law abiding citizens. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. � Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
