The irony here is that there should not even BE a “requirement” for any permits at all.
CCW is to me, an infringement on rights to bear arms. There is no “licensing” required in the real natural world. That is what CCW is - and why does it have to be “concealed”? Seems to me “out in the open” is alot better deterrent.
“Seems to me out in the open is alot better deterrent.”
You’ve got that right. We have a couple of guys here in NH that regularly hold “open carry cleanup days.” They pick a neighborhood and clean it up while carrying firearms.
I think they have educated the local police in their area.
