I really dont think you should. I do however think that you should have a background check to purchase a hand gun. I dont understand the difference of having a background check to purchase a gun, and going through the process to have a permit, other than the state and federal government making money and being able to keep track of you.
It is my right to have a gun, and I believe carrying it for my protection is also my right. But I think that being a convicted violent criminal negates your privilege to be able to carry.
I think there should be a test for a permit. Kind of like a driver's test just to prove you're competent enough to carry
I agree with that. My wife and I just had the debate about it too. I think you should have some basic fundamental understanding of guns and at least some shooting time.
You know sadly a lot of what I think is what is already in place. So maybe I do think there should be a permit. I trust myself, but its really when you think about others.
So maybe a permit is a good idea, but the whole current system to get one is a joke. I want to go, take a class, pass a test, shoot to prove I know what Im doing and get my permit on the spot. For one fee. Not this current crazy BS.
If your going to carry a pistol, then yea I'd say I think you should have a permit. I consider it a way to weed out the people that have no business carrying a gun on them. People that have had certain types of crimes in the past, people that are a bit unstable, etc. And also, not everybody really knows how a handgun works, and a pistol permit course gives you the basics along with some hands on experience.

Carrying a gun is a right, driving a car is a privilege.
Why? Because the second amendment says so? We as a race have generally gotten stupider since this amendment was enacted. As such anyone with a brain can't argue the education and testing for gun ownership argument. If u can't pass a simple test about gun ownership (which I'm sure many ppl who own a gun now could not) then u don't have the right to own one

I'm tired of all these stupid loopholes and jackass arguments so people don't get butthurt about their rights and gun control. Enact common sense about it and choose a less deadly topic to get butthurt about your god given rights

That's easily the dumbest fucking thing I have ever read in my life. You absolutely take the prize as being the most blatantly idiotic human to have ever posted on this forum. You speak of people much like yourself who have blind eyes to the vast improvements in technology and culture that has flourished in the last 200 years. You apparently need to go back and read your history books, you illiterate serf. You judge only the lowest common denominators and hold them as saints of our species.

Case in point. Butthurt because I don't agree with you. You take the most sarcastic point in my post and try to turn it around into some sort of attack of my intelligence as I don't realize there has been great achievements and advancements since the second amendment was created.
