Yeah, that was my first thought when I saw the link (which has somehow been removed) I don't know of anyone who would willingly give anyone information, regarding their carry status, where they are at any particular time, or even whether or not they own firearms.

To repeat: I am not the Topic Author!!

I am not the Topic Author of this thread, I don't know what happened to the original post, but my first post here was in reply to the link, and the post the OP put there.

First, never in a million years would I voluntarily sign up to be tracked wherever I go because I'm licensed to carry a handgun. Not only because of the possibility of the government getting or using the data, but criminal types as well. Secondly, because the person representing the app really came across as a jerk (best word I can get by with here).
:iagree:

I had the same impression of the guy. Not real sure what his motives are, or why he thought this would be a good idea, that LTC holders would embrace. It sure isn't for my peace of mind, I don't care if I am the only LTC holder for miles around, no one is better suited to protect me than me. JMHO

Re: New IPhone APP maps concealed handgun permit holders.

Yeah, I'm not sure I buy into the premises of "mapping" LTC for "safe" areas. I won't be adding my info into the app, or even downloading it. If you are an LTC holder, why would you need to to know the locations of others? Conversely I don't want those who wish to take what's not theirs, to even have a general vicinity to track homes with guns. Not a good idea JMHO.
