Re: Federal Concealed Carry Permit
My thoughts are that to do something with the potential severity of being armed one should need to show a capability, much like driving a car.
Would you say it's wrong to drive a car, unlicensed, even if it's to save your or someone else's life?Any mission, any conditions, any foe at any range.
Twice the mayhem, triple the force.
Ten times the action, total hardcore.

Re: Federal Concealed Carry Permit
Your correct in what you say...and I agree that under normal circumstances no weapon is dangerous. My concern is the cowboy types or those with short fuses, or those who THINK they know what their doing but don't have a clue. How do we curtail someone who will pull out a gun for a simple argument, thinking they are justified? Now, understand, I agree with you that what you see as the legality of your debate is in fact correct, I'm playing devil's advocate to some extent. Personally I'd like to see armed people display an ability to do so but consititutionally I know it doesn't hold water and accept that fact. It's a shame successive Congresses didn't. It would be nice if people took on the personal responsibility to learn how a weapon is to be used but since that isn't a reality and never will be, how do we deal with those who will be reckless or stupid?
Oh...and no, it would not be wrong to use a car in the way prescribed for saving lives.

Re: Federal Concealed Carry Permit
How? Or in what greater degree than a private citizen with whom someone of bad motivation might have an axe to grind?
I (and others) happen to think that it's a good thing that citizens can do that, too.
Why take a paycut, and (in many places) be forced to enforce laws that are (in my opinion, anyway) unconstitutional simply to be able to exercise what ought to be a fundamental right?

Do people get into fist fights over simple arguments often? Some. The people who instigate these fights, however, are ALREADY prone to being put in prison, or being killed in a fight. Bringing guns into the equation doesn't really change a whole lot.
