Hey friends, been a while since I've been on, but I wanted to get your thoughts on the above issue.
Seeing as how the Second Amendment gives us the "right to bear arms," why then should we have to have a permit to do so? I understand that driving is not a right, so we have driver's licensing, vehicle registration, etc, but if we are given the right to bear arms, then why should we have to register to do so? True, we have to register to vote, which if I'm correct is also a right to do, but we also have many additional freedoms that we do not have to register for, yes?
If we have to register to carry a firearm, why not freedom of speech or religion, etc? So would having to obtain a CWP be unconstitutional?
