“What we've essentially done is empowered felons to have guns.” [More]Really? Here's Amendment 5:
This amendment does not prevent the legislature from limiting the rights of certain felons and certain individuals adjudicated as having a mental disorder."Editorial boards." Is it any wonder we love them so?
UPDATE: See Kurt's take in "Police chief sues to overturn will of the voters, make gun rights 'alienable'."

Although "unalienable" by definition is exactly contrary to the last sentence of Section 23 regarding felons and loonies, the removal of the verbiage prohibiting concealment puts us just one step closer to constitutional carry. I fail to see any downside of the amendment unless a regime change would set on a task of adjudicating all gun owners as insane. Legislators also overruled the governor's veto on carry by teachers and lowering the minimum age from 21 to 19.
