实际上08年federal court 就说过了
"(2A) That common law right was held only by citizens and those who swore allegiance to the Government," U.S. Magistrate Judge Edwin Torres writes. "It did not include everyone present on American soil."
从历史来看：
1998, Public Law 105-277 amended the Gun Control Act (GCA) of 1968 and made it illegal for nonimmigrant aliens to possess or transport firearms or ammunition in the United States. On 05 February the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms of the United States Department of the Treasury published regulations that became effective on 19 February 2002.
In general, persons who have nonimmigrant status in the U.S. (examples: B, F, J, H, O, TN) are not permitted to possess or transport firearms or ammunition in the United States. The law provides for some exceptions for persons who wish to use firearms for sports or hunting or for those who are representatives of or employed by friendly foreign governments. In all cases, special permission must be specifically granted and cannot be assumed.
-- 所以禁CCW 允许open carry 很正常，不过的确不方便。。。
