While we may have too many 'Border Jumpers' (a.k.a. Massholes!) here in the Granite State, our State Senators and State Representatives, as well as our Citizens can carry (openly or concealed) at the State House!

Hmmm, are they all verbs? Or is it supposed to be "Live free or die"?
Commas are important people. Though I am constantly reminded that commas aren't people...

Afraid that's no longer the case since Dems regained control of both houses.

Guess I missed that, but this is a 'rule' voted on by the Representatives in the House, and it does not apply to the entire State House. That said, in the current climate of 'we will not comply' with unconstitutional limits on natural God given rights....
From the article, "In a letter to the Monitor, Auburn Rep. Jess Edwards and seven other members of his party denounced the new rule as unconstitutional, arguing that representatives had no obligation to follow it."
“We view Rule 63 as illegitimate,” the group wrote, referring to the new change, which passed the House last week. “We view Rule 63 as having the perverse effect of increasing the risk to everyone in the House gallery and chambers.”
They added: “Due to our willingness to exercise our constitutional rights and because any attempt to disarm House members is foolish public policy, we reserve the right to refuse to comply.”
Quoted elsewhere, Rep. John Burt, R-Goffstown, says he won’t stop carrying his .38 special despite the vote Wednesday to ban firearms in the House gallery, chamber and anteroom.
“I’m still going to carry,” Burt said, adding he will encourage other lawmakers to do the same. The rest of the State House is pro-gun space, he said, and he has carried his gun into Gov. Chris Sununu’s office and the rest of the State House.
No Democrats were voted into state office from my legislative district....Obviously there's work to do elsewhere! Just sayin'!

Good for him.
I'm pretty sure practically every Utah state lawmaker carries at the Capitol. Well, maybe not some dems.

I like the explanation very much, stolen from the memes thread...
To prevent drunk drivers from killing sober drivers, just prevent sober drivers from driving. That's how gun control works.

I know of two Indiana house representatives that carry on the floor because I sold my congressman a S&W 342ti j frame and my gunshow pard, forum member GGF, sold his state rep a j frame, mod 37 if I remember correctly.
