Let me be completely clear here, because I feel maybe my words have been misunderstood a bit.

I'm not supporting further or additional regulation in any state regarding gun control, and controls over obtaining a LTCF. What i AM saying is that i understand that in order to keep guns OUT OF the bad guys' hands, there needs to be SOMETHING in place when one applies for a permit. I'm completely in agreement with someone stepping in and making sure the people who shouldn't have them (guns/permits to carry guns/etc.) dont get them. If done appropriately, which I also realize most of the time, correction, almostall the time doesn't happen.

Also, let's be realistic, you're right jerkin, if you can't be trusted then you shouldn't be free, but due to our current judicial system that just doesn't always happen. Ever heard of parole? Bad guys roam free right around you all day, someone has to make sure they don't get the same rights the free men/women you speak of have.
