    What about Hamrick v. Obama (previously Bush)

    Where is the NRA with Hamrick v. Obama (previously Bush), U.S. District Court for DC, No. 08-CV-1698-EGS (appealed to the DC Circuit) a case for national open carry handgun in intrastate, interstate, nautical, and maritime travel from a U.S. merchant seaman's point of view (the flipside to Heller)?

    I have pushed my case through the federal courts since 2002 and the NRA still refuses to help me. The Open Carry Movement (www.OpenCarry.org) threatens the NRA's pet agenda for National Reciprocity for Concealed Carry. Where is the NRA on "Open Carry?"

    "The problem for the gun haters, though, is that open carry horrifies many of them even more than concealed carry . This is because if the public becomes accustomed to seeing handguns on their friends' and neighbors' hips, as an everyday matter, the citizen disarmament lobby will face greater and greater difficulty in portraying the practice of private citizens carrying firearms as something sinister and a bit sordid, practiced only by a creepy, paranoid fringe. Losing the ability to demonize firearm carry is not a prospect relished by the gun prohibitionists."
