It is crazy to set up a huge expensive bureaucratic system, require everyone to jump though hoops and prove that they are *not* criminals in order to try, ineffectively, to prevent the few individuals who are not responsible, from having legal access to guns. This is a failed paradigm, and it should be abandoned. To accept the idea that the all gun sales should be monitored by the government, and only allowed to those it deems satisfactory is fundamentally wrong.
The entire idea of the enterprise has always been the death of a thousand cuts, where the restrictions on who can buy, and where, and how and what are continually increased until the number of gun owners is reduced to political insignificance.
Requiring licensing of firearms violates the Second Amendment. In my lowly opinion.
In Indiana, we get a pink paper with black type on it. It doesn’t come laminated and the only personal uniqueness to any IN Carry License is that it has your signature on it.
Did I mention it is a Lifetime License to Carry a Handgun?
I went and got mine laminated because I intend to keep it for a while.
It’s cheap and works just fine. :o)
**Officials said they didn’t know of any case in which the current paper licenses had been faked.**
BUT, we are going to tighten the regulations and increase taxes (coming next) anyway.
Simply requiring a permit is a violation of the Second Amendment.
Who do these liars think they’re kidding?
The “additional costs” are borne by the CCW applicants!
ONLY!
