Everyone has limitations. Being blind does not mean you give up your right to arms and self defense.

“Blind people do not give up their rights simply because they are blind.”

There are different levels of blind as well. Not everyone considered blind is completely blind, I'm glad they corrected this for him and I hate that they were forced to use the ADA to do it though.

This was what the sheriff was probably picturing when he slapped the "DENIED" stamp on his application.

Swede Larson: (about the previous owner of the shotgun...)

“He couldn't see too good. He yust shoot where he hear somebody talk. One night, he get into a fight in the saloon. And, the piano player, he made SO MUCH noise, he couldn't hear the other fella speak. So, he yust shoot the piano player...

...and they hung him!"

Those laser sights could be fitted with a feedback device that lets the blind shooter know when he’s on target.
