Michigan only recognizes Indiana *resident* licenses, same as Colorado, Florida, New Hampshire, and Maine(the latter two are both Constitutional carry, but Maine specifically recognizes IN, among others.) South Carolina is also a "resident-only", meaning that for the states they recognize, they won't recognize it unless you live there. I can't carry in SC on my Arizona CFP, for example, but I could if I lived in Arizona.
If by "educated people", you refer to politicians, they're responding to what their constituencies tell them. If you have 50,000 people in your district, and half of them are saying No to permitless carry, you've got 25,000 people to answer to when you go against their wishes. Some of the districts were 85% against, so that's 42,500 or so, of 50,000. THAT's why "our gun rights get put on hold", not because the politicians don't understand, but because they're doing the job that their constituencies hired them to do: Represent them.
So... we have our work cut out for us. We have to do the educating, and we have to do it with the media against us. The old saying is "Never pick a fight with someone who buys ink by the barrel." That's becoming less relevant, of course, but with the dying of the mass media comes the rise of the numbers of "media outlets", whether they're Perez Hilton or DJT on his phone, tweeting to the world. I have to say that from what little I saw of it this morning, numbskulls like Beck, in re: Tomi Lahren, do not help in that regard.

By Educated, I meant all the college educated snowflakes that are more scared of the gun than the murderer holding it....those same people also happen to be the constituents....because I agree, if the constituents were telling their Reps to allow CC, the Reps would(should) do it.
