My chief is in the IACP and he’s as liberal and anti gun as they come. He won’t even approve of his own retired officers carrying.

He doesn't have to approve, it's federal law. Both candidates Gore and Bush were for it, Bush signed it into law.

The law says the retiree must qualify once a year with the department they retired from. If the chief wont sign off on the range qualification then they are not legally carrying.
