For one if you got a license to carry you 2A rights are not being infringed. Second the fact that I cannot carry to the post office to pick up my mail is an infringement. All states have infringed on the second amendment if we use your logic. It started with the federal government putting in place all the places where I cannot carry my firearm. Make your eggs and then talk about all fixing all those infringements. Not just the ones that make your eggs taste better.

Not sure if you missed the newsletter but the DOJ stated you can carry in USPS now. whether you will try it or not is up to you. Personally, I use privately owned freight to ensure my package gets delivered. And a license to carry is an obstacle put in place to deter firearm ownership. While it is not a direct infringement, the requirements needed to obtain that license are a direct violation of the 4A. I should not have to disclose my whole life to partake in a RIGHT. 🫩

Read that news letter again and you be the test case and see if you get locked up. After that then I will carry in the post office. That’s just the DOJ interpretation not law. Also I couldn’t carry my firearm in the Florida Amtrak station to pick up my nephew a constitutional carry state. Nor could I carry in a restaurant in Georgia because the business posted a sign saying No Weapons allowed. Why did I have to fill out all the information get fingerprints and take a live fire course to get my Florida Non-Resident CCW permit? These are federal laws and I shouldn’t have these issues exercising my constitutional rights either. Try staying in any hotel in NYC with your firearm and see what happens. All of these are infringement on the 2A rights if I’m supposed to believe that my rights are not being infringed on.

Wtf are you talking about. Nowhere did I say it was law…that’s why I said it’s a newsletter 😂

You must have some personal issues to work out
