I'm not a gun nut by any means, but as a legal U.S. citizen I have the right to bare arms.
All of this permit nonsense is just that, nonsense. It's political pandering and control.
A permit is not stopping some skell or nutbar from obtaining a gun. Permits punish law abiding citizens but what else is new.

yeah yeah ,, we know . but the fact is the supreme court says other wise and localities have the right to adjust as they see fit so forget the unconstitutional speech ....

the supreme courst said localities HAVE TO HAVE A PERMIT SYSTEM IN PLACE ALA THE CHICAGO RULING ...but that does not mean everyone is entitled to a carry permit which is different then just ownership and protecting one's premise. so it is what it is ... the supreme court up holds ownership , but not unlimited carry

It's stupid. It's political pandering.
Same thing with drug laws, assisted suicide, etc.

as for most things in life . just learn to play the cards you are dealt and stop complaining to no avail about the dealer. i rarely complain about what i can't directly control , but i do learn to deal with whatever it is in the best way i can .
