With House approval today, you'll get to vote on a constitutional amendment making hunting, fishing, trapping, etc. a state constitutional "right" -- subject to limitation by the state Game and Fish Commission.
And, if you choose to do your hunting with a weapon you otherwise keep concealed, be aware that your permit to carry same in concealment will remain a matter of public record. The Senate today voted 34-0 in favor of the bill to release only names and ZIP codes. Full addresses are currently public information.
