As a lifelong gun owner, I understand the awesome responsibility of owning a weapon. After getting my concealed carry license many years ago, I came to understand the greater responsibility of having a deadly weapon on my person. But as a constitutional scholar, I've come to realize just how badly states are infringing on our rights, simply because we decide to exercise one of them. Today, I want to talk about "duty to inform" laws. After all, if the presence of a firearm is a threat to officer safety, than the officer's firearm is a threat to my safety.
