Georgia state House passes bill allowing people to carry gun without license

Georgia House Republicans on Friday passed a bill that would allow Georgians to carry a concealed handgun without a permit.

The 94-57 vote along party lines follows approval from Georgia's GOP-controlled state Senate last month, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. More debate is expected to reconcile the two versions of the bill.

Gov. Brian Kemp (R) on Friday signaled that he supports the move.

"It's great to see so much support for the 2nd Amendment," Kemp wrote on Twitter. "I am committed to working with both the Georgia House and Senate to get Constitutional Carry across the finish line!"

they don't want to scare off foreign tourists. Money rather than politics are calling that shot.

Already passed this in Ohio a few days ago. I so hope I’m wrong. If they didn’t , I’m certain it won’t be long til they do.
