He should set an example by sending his CCW license back to the state and sending his firearms (if any) to the local police department for destruction. Then he should place a sign on his property that reads:

I BAN ALL GUNS ON THIS PREMISES AND DO NOT OWN ANY MYSELF

Guy's a mind-numbed leftist toady ~ he shouldn't need a "permit" to own and use a gun.

He is shooting himself and legal gun owners in the foot theoretically, and I hope he shoots himself in the foot literally. It could happen, he is blind after all. What a jerk.

"to easy"???? He is complaining that a bureaucracy operated efficiently. What a democrat. I bet he complains his taxes are to low too.

Consider a .410 with #4's could enforce the 2'nd amendment.

That wascally Americans With Disabilities Act again. If he hadn't been given a permit, someone would have been sued. When you're dealing with Commie 'RATS, common sense has to be thrown out the window.

You can buy and register a car too if you are blind. Does that mean we should make it tougher for blind people to buy cars? On the other hand, maybe this guy has too much time on his hands.

Someone should teach him how to hold a pistol. I think he's been watching too many movies. Hmmm. Nope, that can't be it.

Is there some reason a blind man cannot pull a trigger?

Where is that in the Constitution?

I say we deny this guy the right to vote until he demonstrates that he will do so responsibly. How can we be sure that he has read up on the issues when his blindness could possibly result in incompetent voting?

He had no agenda! He just woke up one day and couldn't f'en believe the state issued him a concealed carry permit.
