Re: Clarification on proposed open carry law
I would say a large majority of legal gun owners are very responsible. We could get into a discussion about the high moral standards politicians and attorneys convey. Lol

Gun owners were understandably offended when Bloomberg pointed to Sandy Hook as justification to disarm 150 million American gun owners, yet some argue that the wrongful acts of a small percentage of LEOs mean none of them can be trusted.
Chas.
The police have proven themselves to be untrustworthy so that's why it needs to be included so their isn't any misunderstanding about what is allowed or not. I don't think its unfair at all since a normal person cant go around checking to make sure a police officer has the correct credentials.
