It would appear that, under the law (and the Constitution is still the law of the land, isn’t it?), the Federal Gov. is bound to recognize State actions/permits/licenses/etc. But, D.C. doesn’t recognize legally issued State carry permits. This on the face of it appears to be in direct conflict with the Constitution. br> — John Pierre-Benoist /p>
