Buggyone, some states do have a concealed carry permit system that requires a legitimate need in order to get a permit. These types of permits are also known as may issue and also discriminatory permits. One of these states was California, in which their discriminatory permit system was recently ruled unconstitutional. In many, many cases, these "legitimate need" based permits are only given to people who donate money to a certain political party, hollywood celebrities, relatives of the sheriff or mayor, people whose skin is a certain color, etc. Do you really believe that is what we want in America? Where only the elite and connected have rights that us commoners do not have?
