Good point but I have a better one.

No American should require a concealed carry permit or any type of permit to carry a weapon.

In addition, DV laws have been misused and abused, there should be no ban on weapon possession based simply on a DV arrest or conviction. It doesn’t stop anyone from ‘obtaining’ a weapon any more than drug laws prevent anyone from getting illegal drugs.

By the way, it would be nice if congress and the federal government consistently displayed this much concern for states rights.

Just my two cents...

Yes. Even the recipient of domestic violence has the option of being armed so when the threat returns, she (usually) may turn to a reliable, forceful, response to such threat, rather than depend on her home-alarm system, where some white dude who's trying to break into an acting career asks if she's alright and, to notify her 'help is on the way'.(These commercials turn my stomach as help would already BE there and most often can be held in one hand- put the phone down and shoot the SonofaBich)
