Character and Reputation

[giant_g2]

Alright, y'all,

In the post-Bruen world, when (formerly) may-issue states are falling back *hard* on good moral character and the like in their permit applications to maintain their infringement on their subjects, where does PA stand with our character and reputation clause and/or where are we headed?

Inquiring minds...

I'm hoping that gets sorted out via a lawsuit the next time a sheriff (Philly, chesco, etc) revokes a LTCF because the person in question was a victim of a crime and had their gun stolen.

As GunLawyer has noted on many occasions, acts that do fit in with the full definition could be used, even if no charges or convictions occurred. Hopefully a good attorney would argue that fact in an appeal, but since this condition, like "habitual drunkard" were included in addition to the lists of specific criminal offenses that are prohibitors, the legislative intent seems clear.

Become a habitual pot smoker instead of a drunk and problem solved. I mean, isn’t that what everyone is doing nowadays and they want it legal?

Not having a daily updated state mandated social media account will count against you too.

Ironic - now people will have to get social media accounts to prove they are not harmful on social media. Sounds like a new business opportunity - brand new, never used, squeaky clean social media accounts at inflated prices - bonus - we also do counterfeit Covid and Monkeypox Vax Cards!

Well if you have a gun your character is flawed according to liberals. Only the cops that they hate should have them you know?

My character has been assassinated and my reputation precedes me.

It's your social score and get ready for it. Jaywalking, poor credit, days late for work, etc will all be matrixed together.

That works well in Chinkvill. Coming to our hood soon.
