Georgia CHP Military exemtion

That is simply crazy talk. Most of the people in the Army are pro gun.
But, like "trapshooters," my example, when their rights are not threatened they are complacent. This is a statement about human nature not either group specifically.

That is your claim? LOL no wonder you took it out of context. He said he doesn't think anyone should need a permit
I just grabbed the first one I read. Lets try another.
I am fine with the exemption and wish it were 50 state wide though.

OK, I looked up a real article.

From Sept. 30, 2006, to Sept. 30, 2007, the Army granted so-called conduct waivers for felonies and misdemeanors to 18 percent of its new recruits, an increase of three percentage points from the previous year
So that includes misdemeanors also. I did not realize it was necessary to obtain a waiver for any misdemeanor. My bad. I am under the impression the waiver rate is much higher than 20% with almost everyone needing a waiver for something. I don't need one as far as my OSO and I have figured and he was amazed by that fact. Of course, if I don't get to 17 pull ups it isn't going to make a damn bit of difference. Do they offer a pull up waiver?

As far as the officer carrying without ammo. I obtained this knowledge through direct personal contact and it was not known to anyone. He was of a rank almost no one was going to say a thing about it if they did find out. My impression was it was not something he wanted me to know about. It was not Army or USMC. In truth it was a stupid rule. They should have assigned him a driver if they were worried.

By that logic CHL holders would be complacent too. :confused:

You can't get a felony waiver to be an officer anyway.

Join the Army, no pull-ups, just push-ups, sit ups and run.

I was back to speaking about any sort of waiver.

Yeah, I noted that.

I hardly ever do anything to help Californians get their gun rights back. Screw 'em, if they want to carry a gun they can move to UTAH:) I'e got mine.

As a 26 year military member, I think that a military member's home state's permit should be good for any state, regardless of whether that state has reciprocity or not. I also think that should be true for our driver's license and car registrations.
When I was in the Army during the Vietnam unpleasantness, that was the case. My official address was my parents' address, and that's where my driver's license and car registration were. But ... my parents were alive, they still lived in the house in which I grew up, and after my one term of enlistment that's where I returned until I got into school.

How would that work for a career military person, after he/she has been in for 15 or more years, parents have died or retired to a vacation cottage in Sun City, AZ, or a condo in Belize, and the family manse has long since passed out of the family? What would such a person use as his/her "home" state and "home" address ... other than the location of the last PCS in CONUS?
