No need to say sorry at all, I that was all well said and you have good points.

However, it still doesn't change my stance on this. The only thing I think that's wrong with the current CCW process is the additional background check fee. I think that carrying concealed isn't for everyone, because it takes a lot more responsibility than just owning a gun. Just my .02 though

But very well put on your end. [Beer]

You're right, it's not for every body. Just like open carry, just because it is legal, doesn't mean that people will rush out and do it.

Very well said FireMoth!

I'm tired of the attitude that we must legislate to the lowest common denominator. So because there are morons out there that will be irresponsible with a constitutional carry act, the rest of us have to suffer and pay to exercise our rights?

Again it comes down to the fact that law breaking criminals will carry their guns regardless of any laws, so laws restricting our rights only put us at a disadvantage.

...We had a gun law when this country was founded. One, that by its wording should have precluded the writing of any other.
Show me where any of these laws written since then in defiance of that law have improved things, and i'll jump on your training band wagon. untill that is demonstrated... "...Shall NOT be infringed..."

I left most of your post out for length but if I could I'd have the whole damn thing as my signature on every gun forum I belong to!

what is so hard for people to understand about this?

be sure to follow up with your senate person...

So anyone think the only mayor (now CO .gov) that was a member of Bloomberg's gun hater club is going to sign this into law?

I say he's going to put a big fat VETO across this bill because he's so concerned with doing it for the children.

I think almost everyone fore sees that outcome. Which is why a strong 2/3rd majority in the house was an important thing. It's almost certain that there will have to be enough votes to overturn a veto.

It has to get past the Senate first, not likely.
