Genuinely sorry we disagree here.
This was not just abut that law. It’s about a long record of legislative activity. Characterizing CCW applicants as vigilantes is wrong. It can happen but as a generalization it’s wrong.California CCW state law says good cause and good character is the standard to get CCW. That’s not unreasonable. It’s strict enough. IMO, as a The Illiinois Senators is unreasonable and an opponent in significant ways to the 2nd.
His characterization as you quote it is offensive to reasonable gun owners. We are not a bunch of people thinking like “past time police”. We are sportsmen, and willing to defend ourselves from criminal assault.
Exactly. Charles, RWC and I aren’t nutcases, but we are offended by this guy’s words and we think those words are wrong. Don’t waste your time defending a statement featuring a gross mischaracterization. The simple fact is that Trotter is wrong on Concealed Carry, and even the bill put before him being bad would not have made him right.
