Re: LifeTime Permit
Rather than Lifetime, I'd prefer a National Permit.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!”

Re: LifeTime Permit
As much as I'd like to see a National Permit, and have the freedom to carry nationwide, this is an issue which I think should remain within State's Rights.
If Congress got a hold of this and tried to legislate nationwide carry laws, those laws would, for all their good intentions, in effect become gun control laws. Why? Because we'd have every liberal Senator and Representative from every urban center in the country, where anti-gun thinking is common, weighing in on whether I should have the right to carry in a small town in PA. There's NO WAY everyone is going to agree on this issue, and something which started with good intentions will get legislated to death.
In addition, if nationwide reciprocity were to be proposed, then every liberal legislator in the country would try to force states to be more strict about the issuance of LTC permits in order to prevent their existing anti-gun laws from being subverted.
In general, this processes gives legislators which I did not elect the authority tell me how I should live my life in PA.
I REALLY would like to see this country stand up for it's rights, uphold the Constitution, and allow me to carry anywhere, but I don't think that's going to happen. And in the meantime, I don't want people from all over the country telling me if/how to carry a gun in PA."Political Correctness is just tyranny with manners"
