youngbuck Report post Posted June 19, 2009 I think its a bad idea. The 8 hour course is very imformative. I know that some people who take the course and ccw license need more than the required 8 hrs. The 2nd ammendment is a right to bear arms but I understand it is a privledge and responsibility to do so concealed in public. I would like to see something that would allow carry on college campus though. Maybe an additional course and more training or something along those lines. The last thing we need is more people carying concealed who dont know what they are doing. They would end up hurting them selves and others. I can see it now.

TAM Report post Posted June 21, 2009 The real key point here is that Arizona is already an OPEN CARRY state. That means that pretty much anyone can cary a gun in public as long as it's not concealed. No registration, no classes, no back ground check. Buy a gun and strap it on your belt. So in effect, our current CCW laws are not keeping any law abiding citizen from their 2nd Ammendment rights to bear arms. If Arizona were not already an open carry state I would be all for removing our current CCW laws, or making it an open carry state so that no one was denied the right to bear arms. In other words... everyone should be allowed to at least open carry without taking a class, registration, back ground check, etc. I think that for most people, including myself, the 8 hours spent in class is time and money well spent!
