National Right to Carry

A bill has been introduced to the house which would provide for a national right to carry. Now I all for this bill, but I feel that it shouldn't be necessary due to a combination of the 2nd amendment and the full faith and credit clause.

However, some people who are otherwise pro gun have argued that they are against this bill since it should be up to the states and view this a states rights issue.

This is a significant issue with Libertarians and one reason I won't join the party. As a whole, they are too ideological and not pragmatic. In order to win elections you need to be pragmatic.
