Your wording added liberal bias that casts doubt on the CC movement. This description is neutral.
Constitutional carry means that the carrying on one's person or in/on one's [[vehicle]] of firearms, concealed or not, is generally not restricted by the [[law]]. A constitutional carry [[state]] is a "free state" from a gun law perspective (see "[[Second Amendment]] right to keep and bear arms"). However, this should not be confused with the use of "free state" by [[libertarian]]s who use that phrase to advocate for political migration to achieve political power.

The term "Constitutional carry" seeks to evoke an unlimited Constitutional right that is not recognized at the state or federal level. This results in a confusing message for this political movement which lobbies for changes in state gun laws while professing that the laws in question are invalid. In actual practice, the 2008 ''[[District of Columbia v. Heller]]'' [[United States Supreme Court|Supreme Court]] decision undercuts the descriptive power of the phrase "constitutional carry" because the opinion suggests that some [[state]] or [[city]]-[[county]] government controls may be allowed, at least as to certain types of weapons. The decision was limited to the possession of firearms in one's home.
The legal term "constitutional carry" describes the [[Bill of Rights]] legal interpretation that the Second Amendment to the [[United States Constitution]] allows/permits no regulations or restrictions on [[gun ownership]] (eg. "''Shall not be infringed''", in the Second Amendment). In actual practice, the 2008 ''[[District of Columbia v. Heller]]'' [[United States Supreme Court|Supreme Court]] decision undercuts the descriptive power of the phrase "constitutional carry" because the opinion suggests that some [[state]] or [[city]]-[[county]] government controls may be allowed, at least as to certain types of weapons.
