"Constitutional carry” passes in the committee and will now move on to the House.
You have quite the attachment to this restriction. How much do you make off the permits?
quote:No. Poll taxes are an artifice for political control and have no compelling societal interest. There is also not a compelling public interest in requiring political indoctrination for voting anyone's interests. Seems like a method of undue influence.
I did have a serious question: since you believe in some semblance of “reasonable training” for a concealed carry in the name of safety, shouldn’t, by the same logic, poll taxes be reintroduced along with civics testing to ensure one understands our government and how it works before voting?
However there is an obvious public interest in teaching people when they can shoot and how to do it safely and accurately. Similar to teaching someone how to safely drive before issuing a drivers' license.

One could have the argument that everyone concealed carrying would become a “social norm” as much as having a cell phone in your pocket.
I do believe there is a massive difference in a right compared to what is personal responsibility. The conservative viewpoint here being you have the right to carry, just as open carry, but you have the personal responsibility to know how/when to shoot, with accuracy. That is not up to the government to decide, just as it currently is for open carry.
It is safer for people to carry concealed than open carry. Yet we require no training for open carry. We expect people to train themselves and know what to do. Now, suddenly, the firearm is covered by cloth and all that gets thrown out the window? The logic and mental gymnastics for open vs concealed astounds me.
