Don’t conflate personal carry with having a gun in the car, folks. Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming retain enough freedom to allow vehicular carry in a fashion rational enough for you to quickly access and use the gun to actually protect yourself. States like Vermont and Nevada and a surprising number of others allow loaded, open, vehicular carry, a very beautiful thing indeed.

Many other states allow vehicular carry under license, including, amazingly, New York.

Those who do not allow vehicular carry with reasonably rapid access simply aren’t worth living in. Leave them.
