I am concerned about FedGov exercising powers of any kind related to gun ownership. Although it is wonderful to enforce protection of an absolute right, the power to enforce is the power to violate. The unique thing about the Feds is that once they violate a right there is no legal recourse (one could obviously engage in armed rebellion, but...). So I’m not quite so thrilled with pushing this kind of statute forward because that kind of latitude in the hands of the left is a perilous thing indeed.

That has been my concern as well. Get a leftist SCOTUS and they cancel everyone’s CCW in one fell swoop.
The carrying of firearms should not be licensed in the first place, regardless of how it’s done, precedent be damned.

Such are the perils of using the Enemy’s own weapons against them.
