Well if its public land, then I don't see why not. You don't need a reason to carry.
You should need a reason to bring a gun to a beach. You are likely not carrying it unless you are clothed and never go into the water. Do you really think people are going to stay at the beach wearing a holster the whole time?
Its public land, is it not?
Again- are they really carrying or are they leaving their gun on the beach while they go into the water?
I don't see how that matters
You don't see how carrying or not carrying matters? So you can just leave a gun anywhere you like in a public space? Like where a kid or a crazy person could just pick it up if they saw it? And even if that's legal, you think that should be legal?
Gonna go out on a limb and guess that letting a random kid get a hold of your weapon is illegal, and would land you in quite a bit of trouble.
Oh, well as long as it will land you in trouble. What other consequences could there be?
Idk, do you want them to be executed or something? I’m guessing if a child were to get a hold of your weapon and something happened you’d be looking at jail time.
Or, you know, people shouldn't bring guns to the beach where they likely won't be secure. I'm not sure why you need a gun at the beach in the first place. Are you going to need protection from an angry flounder with a machete?
I totally agree with you, I don’t see the reason either. But something not being understandable to me personally doesn’t mean it should be illegal.
We should have strong restrictions in gaining access to these weapons, and heavy punishments for misusing them. Like leaving a firearm out in the open - obviously that should be severely punishable.
But permits exist for a reason, and as long as someone is careful, responsible, and fully complying with the law then I don’t see a problem.
I fully understand the worry though, and I’m not going to pretend like my opinion is infallible. Obviously what we have now just doesn’t work, and needs to be fixed.
Yep I hope to see more gun rights precedents set by this SC. It's the one thing that's good about that court now
Yes this great "injustice" of not being able to take guns with me everywhere must be corrected.
