Which of the following best describes South Dakota's stance on 'Open Carry' without a permit?

  1. Prohibited in all public areas

  2. Allowed without any permit

  3. Allowed with a permit only

  4. Not addressed in law

The correct answer is: Allowed without any permit

By describing South Dakota's stance on 'Open Carry' without a permit as "Allowed without any permit", it is implying that individuals have the right to openly carry a firearm in public without the need for a permit. This means that the state does not have specific laws or regulations that restrict or prohibit individuals from carrying firearms in this manner. Option A, "Prohibited in all public areas", would mean that openly carrying a firearm without a permit is illegal in all public spaces, which is not the case in South Dakota. Option C, "Allowed with a permit only", would mean that individuals must obtain a permit in order to openly carry a firearm, which is not the case in South Dakota. Option D, "Not addressed in law", would mean that there is no specific law or regulation regarding 'Open Carry' without a permit in South Dakota, which is not the case as it is explicitly allowed without a permit.
