Guns carried in public pose a danger to public safety, and lax concealed carry laws increase the risk of violent confrontations.
Background
The carrying of concealed, loaded guns in public places can quickly escalate everyday conflicts into deadly altercations, causing tragic, irreversible damage to innocent lives. These dangers are amplified when the permitting standards for concealed carry are weakened. Despite this public safety risk, the gun lobby continues to push dangerous proposals that would weaken or eliminate the permitting requirements for carrying concealed firearms in public.
The South African Constitution has a Bill of Rights that protects all people. This means that people living with HIV/AIDS have the same rights as any other person. No employer can require that a job applicant have an HIV test before they are employed.Nov 8, 2
