64. Teenagers can carry concealed weapons in Vermont.
Why should anyone worry about something like that — besides fearing for their life, or for the lives of their loved ones, that is? Teachers, principals and students, too. And people in the mall, or on the highway, or in church, or at the football game, or at the rock concert, or down the street...

From the Brady site:

CCW Limits
May police limit carrying concealed handguns? NO

State law allows anyone who can buy a gun to carry it loaded and concealed in public. No police permit or police notification is required to carry loaded guns hidden on a person. No training in gun laws or gun safety is required. Vermont is the only state in the country to have such a lax approach to the carrying of loaded, concealed weapons in public.
