Enhanced Arkansas Concealed Carry Permit Allows Guns More Places: LITTLE ROCK, Ark. --
More than 200,000 Arkansans have their concealed carry license, according to Arkansas State Police. In the coming months, the enhanced carry permit will allow guns in more places. Firearms will be allowed in public buildings, universities, bars and churches. Arkansas State Police is expected to release its training program in January. One concealed carry instructor said if you get a permit you're entering a good faith agreement with the community when you carry. "Second Amendment gives you the right to own arms, but if you carry in public you enter a social contract with us," said Ron Garatt, the G.I. Guns and Ammo owner. Instructors also recommend coming in at least once every few months, to re-qualify. One instructor said some people quickly forget the basics, like loading a magazine.
Ok, so here are MY questions:
(1) Why are some CCL's better than others? If you are 'trusted' to carry concealed, what makes you "less trusted" than others?
(2) If you are a CCL, but you are trusted in the streets ... what is it about you that renders you un-trusted to carry in a courtroom, school, church or low dive? To my way of thinking, churches and bars are equally unattractive: I'm not buying what they're selling. (The same goes for Universities.)
I'm just saying .... and while I'm at it:
this is so friggin' lame. Who forgets 'loading a magazine" and still passes the qualification for Concealed Carry License? This is just SILLY!
Are they this silly in Arkansas?

I also think that the owner of GI Guns needs to re-read the Second Amendment. Being a Citizen of the United States make you a part of our society. As such you are entered into a "social contract" to be law abiding. No permits are required to be a good citizen. Part of our Constitutionally recognized rights is to be able to bear arms anywhere. We are now subject to unconstitutional laws, but that is not the point. Whenever someone decides to break the law, they break their social contract and face the penalty. So having a permission slip granted and now an extra special permission slip allows a citizen to exercise their Constitutionally recognized right more closely to how the framers intended? I am not buying what they are selling either!
