“The right to bear arms shall not be infringed”.
500 bucks or I can’t defend myself. That’s not an infringement. /s
Some good news!
This is still hooey. Arizona requires no permits for anything, and has no problems at all. And while training is a nice thing to get on your own, requiring it is just a waste of time.
Policemen with lots of training and many range hours often will still miss the broad side of a barn; whereas a cute little girl with a bow in her hair who has never held a gun before might be able to plant five rounds in a tight shot grouping at dog-tag elevation.
As far as felony convictions go, Arizona has some arcane rules about gun rights restoration for some felons, but it is not impossible. Most ex-cons probably know if they can, and want to, get their gun rights back. And if the police catch them with an illegal gun, they are in deep kimchi.
I must move to that state.
That is infringement any way you look at it.
I pay the $125 and it pisses me off every time I do.
I should NOT have to pay for my constitutional right, that simple.
I will admit to mixed emotions about the educational training, some people do need it, but it is not in the second amendment, therefore it is an infringement.
If they want to do something, pass a law where we can defend property as in Texas.
Our laws are not bad dealing with self defense (House and car when in car), but an addition of the Texas law would be nice.
Poor people don’t deserve the right or ability to defend themselves. /s
I am always amazed to hear about someone with a CC permit, but they don’t carry. I’ve always wondered how you know the time and place you’ll need your gun?
Officials here in New Hampshire can issue lifetime licenses, since the four year term is a minimum, but in practice they never do.
$125 or $500, there should be no tax on civil rights.
