Only for guns on trains:
The Senate voted Wednesday to permit passengers on the Amtrak passenger railroad to transport handguns in their checked baggage.
The proposal, approved by a 68-30 vote, seeks to give Amtrak riders rights comparable to those enjoyed by airline passengers, who are permitted to transport firearms provided that they declare they are doing so and that the arms are unloaded and in a securely locked container.
If you’ve ever been to an Amtrak station, you’ll know that there is next to no security, in stark contrast to the police state in effect at airports. But 68 of our brightest lights think it’s a good idea.
