Okay, states win--gun owner and NRA have to settle for status quo at this time. People will carry their firearms, but the 'concealed weapons permits' just aren't valid.......

I don't like the idea of Federal Laws superseding many states laws.  Actually, I understand both sides of this gun issue.  I would like to have the legal ability to cross state lines while traveling and carrying my firearm.  It would be a nice and warm fuzzy feeling knowing that my concealed weapons permit was legal where ever I traveled.  But, if the Fed's start passing a law I like, and while doing it, trudge on the States ability to govern themselves, there is no telling where the Fed's will stop.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://lakotachief.blogspot.com/2009/07/senate-says-no-to-carrying-concealed.html"><P> <B>WASHINGTON (CNN) </B> -- The Senate narrowly rejected a measure to allow people to carry concealed weapons from state to state Wednesday. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://lakotachief.blogspot.com/2009/07/senate-says-no-to-carrying-concealed.html"><P> The vote was 58 to 39.
