Second Amendment / Re: Supreme Court Emergency Decision To End All Firearm Permits Nationwide Gets Put Into Motion
« Last post by Smokin Joe on Today at 03:51:31 pm »I've never had a 'firearm permit' in my life. I have often carried, often concealed. Never had a permit, one.In some jurisdictions, there is a requirement for a permit to purchase a firearm, not just a requirement to carry one concealed or otherwise. I've had a carry permit for pistol or revolver from 1982 here (issued by the county Sheriff, at first, then transitioned to a permit to carry firearms and/or dangerous weapons at the State Level some years later), which I maintain to keep me in the 'good guys' database, but is wholly unneeded now with Constitutional Carry in ND. When traveling elsewhere, however, that card has a little weight in the case of a traffic stop, showing I am not a person given to criminal behaviour.
Why the hell would anyone obey that?
There are states which do not recognize reciprocity, and that shouldn't even matter, as the Second Amendment is all the permit anyone should need. Traveling across the country can be a real mess of rules that change with imaginary lines, and what we consider normal and prudent behaviour out west here is pure felony territory in some places. It's nuts if you ask me, but I just walk softly when there, and try not to spend the night.
