First, it was "Guns Everywhere" and look at the bloodshed that spawned. Next we got "Campus Carry" and protestors ended up writing their signs with fresh human blood. Even the pandemic cannot bleach the stain of those memories from our minds.
Just when you thought it couldn't get worse, the Gold Domers are serving up "Constitutional Carry" allowing anyone who would qualify for a carry license to tote a gun without actually getting a license from the government. Without a government background check. Without offering up their fingerprints for the government's database.
Just like every time before, there WILL be blood.
This law will open the floodgates. No longer will public firearm carry be restricted to those who rent a license from the government and criminals who care neither about the law nor the government. Now every ole Dick and Jane can run around town with a concealed firearm and the government won't even have a clue. Neither will you. What were they thinking?
And just look at the added layer of protection we currently get from government licensing of the second amendment. Sure, sure, Georgia IS a "shall issue" state and if you qualify they have to give you a license. Sooner or later. But what are the qualifications? Well, the aforementioned fingerprints and background check that must take less than sixty days unless the government decides that the government's delays are "reasonable." Oh, yeah, and it will cost you. In DeKalb that would be $85.25 at the very least. For this minor inconvenience to some everyone else can rest assured that anyone carrying, with a license anyway, is far safer than they would be without one. C'mon man, isn't that just common sense?
