re: #8 goddamnedfrank

What if he’s had several restraining orders in the past, but they’ve expired. What if he’s a vocal sovereign citizen anti-tax nut job. How far into their lives are you willing to peer to question “good” standing.

I don’t get this cop worship, why they should be considered super-citizens when retired or on reserve status and not currently called up. It’s kind of disturbing to be honest.

How about a reasonable stipulation that it’s a cop in good standing like I said and you not accuse me of cop worship? See now that is where these discussions go off the rails. They are “super citizens” (trying to accommodate your term) by way of the powers and responsibilities they have been given in our society under the law.

How about a reasonable stipulation the guy carrying the cash is in good standing legally and by way of his mindset?

Now that we set aside the rare exceptions how about the guys as I described? Why the heck not allow them the permit?

Lets add I support this law-
Don’t you? If not why not?

The Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA) is a United States federal law, enacted in 2004, that allows two classes of persons—the “qualified law enforcement officer” and the “qualified retired law enforcement officer”—to carry a concealed firearm in any jurisdiction in the United States, regardless of state or local laws, with certain exceptions.
The act was introduced during the 108th Congress as H.R. 218 and enacted as Public Law 108-277.[1] The law was later amended by the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act Improvements Act of 2010 (S. 1132, Public Law 111-272),[2] and Section 1099C of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (H.R. 4310, Public Law 112-239).[3] It is codified within the provisions of the Gun Control Act of 1968 as 18 USC 926B[4] and USC 926C.[5]
