G-man,
Gun toters just want to be the new, new age sensitive guys. Cut em a break. Most of the CCW pistol packers I know, who pack daily, are the ones who need something stiff in their pocket to remind them of days gone by while they lust for the chance to save the day. They just switch fantasies. The spooky kookies are the ones who like to troll for trouble. Your talkin about sensitive private stuff here.

“The gun nuts say…” ? ! ? !

Jeez…

Just because some of us defend our Right to Keep and Arm Bears ?

; )

EDITOR NOTE–One thing all gun nuts have in common is being sensitive. That was a term of endearment like lefty, greenie, tree hugger. THOSE people aren’t offended. 🙂

So now we want to treat CCW holders just like sex offenders and felons? Really! We have a new “Blogging” champion! You, sir, have just been awarded the esteemed “single dumbest post in history”. Stop by my office to pick up your trophy.
Oh, and just treat everyone you come in contact with as though they are carrying concealed and you will be fine. I can’t believe someone would actually hit the “post” button on something so dumb!

Mrkm.. you must be kidding. Post my name and picture for doing something that is perfectly legal because of your unreasonable fears? And to put people with concealed weapons permits in the same category as sex offenders? Further, just because I have a permit doesn’t mean that I pack a Glock.. or any other weapon.

Why in the world does a public gun registry make sense?

Carrying a gun LEGALLY is not a crime, although there are those who obviously think it is.

Two comments. First, I’d like to know if Ferdinand has a “real” concealed weapons permit, where he had to go through at least some rudimentary training, or be an ex-cop, or ex- military, or if he has one by the mere fact that he is an elected official. Secondly, I think that pictures, locations and identities of everyone who has a concealed weapons permit should be posted on the internet. They do it for sex offenders and for anyone who has been in jail for 20 minutes, so why not concealed gun toters? I’m far more concerned about knowing about who is “packing” a Glock, rather than someone who may want to “pack” something else.

Steunenburg was blown up by a bomb. No gun was used. If he had a ccw it wouldn’t have done much good. This Canyon County moron should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. That won’t happen because he is part of the gun culture that arrested him. John Doe. public would get the book thrown at him to make a point and set an example that Idaho does not tolerate potential terrorists, blah, blah, blah. The gun nut set just snicker, since he is one of them. They belive in gun crime enforcement unless it’s one of them or a packing gun frat toad. Too bad he didn’t get on the plane and get caught in an out of state airport.

I was actually referring to Steunenburg, but I am not smart enough to find out when it actually happened. Anything past 2007 gets a little foggy to me. I am starting to believe that the main reason to deny a CWP is stupidity. The felon, mental history thing is all fine, but there are obviously some very stupid people that currently qualify. (what am I supposed to grip?)

Actually Cyclops, it was a bit tongue in cheek….

Anyway…I was thinking of an event much older than that…….

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Steunenberg

But on review, it seems he was killed AFTER his term ended (albiet for his actions while in office). My bad. Perhaps we should extend the CCW waiver to any former elected official as well?

(again just poking fun here….get a grip!)

But which event were you speaking of?
