Three Reasons Why Constitutional Carry (No CCW Permit) is Not Insane :: 05/27/2011
Gun control advocates have an extremely limited appreciation of personal liberty (if it's even on their radar). But they're not stupid. They know that the more barriers government places in the way of CCW permits, the less CCW permits the government will issue. More laws, less guns.
Chicago's post-McDonald decision laws requiring training for applicants who want to own a gun in their home-whilst banning gun ranges within city limits-is only the most obvious form of de facto gun control. Requiring training in the first place is the most insidious.
Make no mistake: requiring training is a form of taxation designed to inhibit CCW permits. Poll tax anyone? No? So why is it OK to tax a law-abiding American for placing a gun in a holster? (Lest we forget, Uncle Sam or his State cousins have already taken their pound of flesh for the gun, holster and ammo.) Answer: it isn't.
