Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : Historical laws protecting government buildings are not relevantly similar to SB2's prohibition on CCW permitholders carrying firearms for self-defense at banks, which creates a far larger burden on the law-abiding citizen's Second Amendment right to self-defense.
50% : The law designates twenty-six categories of places, such as hospitals, public transportation, places that sell liquor for on-site consumption, playgrounds, parks, casinos, stadiums, libraries, amusement parks, zoos, places of worship, and banks, as "sensitive places" where concealed carry permitholders cannot carry their handguns.
50% : In short, designating medical facilities as "sensitive places" impermissibly "operate[s] to prevent law-abiding citizens with ordinary self-defense needs from carrying arms in public for that purpose" without any persuasive analogue in historical regulation or "settled" sensitive places.
43% : Public transportation:The government has presented no evidence that this balance supports preventing people who have been through a thorough background check and training process to obtain a special permit to carry a concealed weapon from exercising their constitutional right to self-defense on public transportation.
