Blue states respect Arkansas Permits

Choosing to carry a concealed handgun is a huge responsibility that shouldn't be taken lightly. Once you have a permit to do so, I suggest you carry all the time where legally allowed. You never know when or where it might be needed. If you Fail to Plan, then you can Plan to Fail. Victim or Survivor, it's your choice!

If on any given day you know when and where your going to need a gun.... then on that day, I suggest you stay at home!!
