CCW
I believe that states should get on board with reciprocity across the board. To clear up the difference between state reciprocity and federal or national level CCW is Fed control. If the states agree to unilateral reciprocity then it will stay within the span of state regulation. If we go to a National CCW then the Feds will have direct control of regulation and the definition of self defense and a clean shoot will be extremely narrow. States that have "loose" or citizen favorable regulations will lose that ability when the federal gov't tightens the noose. If they don't comply then the feds can do what they always do and threaten to remove federal funding as they did with the legal drinking age.
As for military men ansd women carrying on post it can be a double edged sword. While there are those with the common sense to do the right things there is a large majority who don't. The post stab and jabs would become more lethal and a big black eye for the military would ensue. Because the press loves nothing more than to jump on military and bash us when convienent. The overall big picture and 2nd and 3rd order effects could be potentially very bad. I am all for soldiers having special rights for the sacrifices made, being an active duty guy myself, but I think some thought would have to be put into this carrying on post. Just my thoughts
