Utah Moves To Allow Concealed Carry Without a Permit

That proposal, HB76, packed a hearing room and left people standing along the walls and featured at least one man showing off his black semi-automatic assault rifle to interested spectators taking pictures of it.
"I have the right by law to carry this," Mathew Chappel said. "I don’t have any intention to harm anybody."
