"You have a right to have legal items in your personal vehicle (and should have the right to have them on your person)."

I assume that this is a legal opinion based on statute or precedence, that you have observed over the years as a practicing attorney at law? If so, you will have to admit that this can vary depending on state or territory and local laws......

We all know what the Constitution says.... we also all know that there are "gun control laws" in a number of states that have withstood the challenge of constitutionality, and are still being enforced. Just try carrying a firearm in New York City without benefit of a local permit!
