Carrying weapons in air carrier airport terminals; removing prohibition against carrying firearms. Removes the prohibition against carrying certain firearms and other weapons in air carrier airport terminals. The bill retains the prohibition against carrying explosives in such areas.

This is a good thing to do. The current restrictions force a person to disarm even if they are only accompanying another person up to the security check-in and that is ridiculous. Further, it makes it adds prohibitions that would legally require someone to wait until they are out of the passenger terminal before ensuring they had a useable sidearm. Having traveled enough, I'm generally not too leary of violence in the terminals, but just outside of them is a different story altogether.
