The Senate narrowly rejected a measure to allow people to carry concealed weapons from state to state Wednesday.
The vote was 58 to 39. The amendment needed 60 votes to pass.
The measure would have required each of the 48 states that allow concealed firearms to honor permits issued in other states.
It was the first significant defeat this year for the gun lobby.
The concealed weapons proposal was an amendment to a larger defense appropriations bill, introduced by Sen. John Thune, a South Dakota Republican.

What is the down fall to this bill? if you are deemed responsible in one state to conceal and carry why shouldnt another state with the same laws and regulations honor that? i love that so many so called liberals are all for freedom except when it comes to guns.
lol. i agree.
nothing really bad about it... just more people blasting thats all. hahaha
calm down Mayor Bush. lol
It advocates cowardice...... If You have to have a gun to feel safe your father failed you....IMO
good point
are you both kidding me??? thats fucking rediculas. you ever been to the ghetto to see a customer at 7pm in a suit and tie?? know what kind of attention that draws? or the tow truck driver that carrys cash with him in EC at 3am??? i have a great idea lets just have everyone that gets put in those situations buy illegal guns from thugs off the street, cause we all know they are easier to get that way. see the article below, what if this was you? I bet you wish you had your conceal and carry when this happens....
