Requirement to inform LEO of cc
That's a negative? Not all LEO's are bad guys and most want to go home at night.

I need to make a clarification. I was just pointing out areas where LA had points removed; I was not expressing my personal opinion. Having said that…... personally, from my experiences thus far, I don't think a cc having to inform LEO is a negative. The 2 times I've had an encounter w/ LEO while i was legally carrying concealed, it was just fine; the LEO was respectful, calm and courteous. Likewise, I don't think it's fair or appropriate that LA got dinged 3 points (only received 7 points of 10 points max) because it requires 7-9 hours of training; OTOH, AL got a full 10 points of credit because it requires ZERO hours of training. To me, cc carries w/ extra layer of safety obligation by the one carrying concealed; I don't think it's unfair to require a degree of appropriate and fair training.
I take exception to how some of the factors were structured, as well. For example, a state that has reciprocity w/ 1 state was granted 2 points. A state that has reciprocity w/ 30 states only gets 4 more points. The latter state has reciprocity w/ 30X as many states as the other but only get 3X more points? Seems like some misplaced priorities w/ the scoring system. Nevertheless, it makes for a good discussion.
