Very interesting and informative.

Thanks Sky

In a lot of the states, the officer knows that you have a carry permit, as it shows up when they do the initial stop and call in your license plate number.

Good post.

I saw a little police blotter report in the Daily Sun this morning. A man was dropping his wife off at a store. A car comes in back of him and does not like to be kept waiting. The car circles the parking lot, parks by the first man. The driver gets out and begins cursing at the first man for blocking his way and in the heat of the arguement - raises his shirt to display a revolver in a holster. That dude is now charged with assault with a deadly weapon.

Hot heads do not mix with concealed weapons.

I have all of Ayoob's books and used to teach from them, but that is the first time I have seen him presenting anything.
Thanks for the link.

For all you Florida CWL holders, read, heed and take to heart the FL statutue on display of a firearm. You might want to cool your heels.

I see no reason to carry a gun around here in TV. NONE. For those that do...it seems to be a form of showing off. When you bring it up they spout out things they have heard at meetings and things they have read.To me it is like a big mind control thing. Like a cult or religion. There is no real or imminent danger here in The Villages at this time.

The Constitution says we have the right to bear arms and that is good when and if there is a real and apparent danger.

People in The Villages do not need to ask dumb questions of each other like I have read on this forum...like..do you take your gun to the dentist...or to the doctor's office. I have read on this forum about people here who say things that are so provoking and show lack of control of temper and lack of good judgement that if two of them would show their poor judgements by taunting each other in person and had guns...there could be a deadly altercation.

I believe in everyone second ammendment rights but I do not see why anyone would carry a gun around The Villages.

Sit down and get comfortable...because people are gonna tell me why........

As usual, Gracie, you are right. However, there are those who think a gun is necessary apparel at all times. No reason for it in The Villages, though.

I know of one lady (85 years old) who just got her CCW license and her husband is in a wheelchair and homebound. He keeps a revolver in the side pocket of his wheelchair.

Another person I heard of answers his door (day or night) with a pistol ready to use in a hip holster. He said he is frightened of home invasion in The Villages.

Seems foolish to me to live that scared - especially in a slice of Heaven like The Villages.

I agree, no need for gun in the villages. To many cowboys that are all show.

Graciegirl, who is going to tell us when a, to use your words

real and apparent danger

is close at hand?

There needs to be some changes in the CWL requirements by most all of the states. Many have no training requirements, requiring you to learn about the laws pertaining to concealed carry. Most of the concealed carry classes here in Florida are a joke. Also you don't need any class instruction if you are prior military and have a DD 214 or a hunter safety class. Hunter safety class does not require that you fire a shoot. A DD 214 issued 30 years ago to a draftee, ain't nothing wrong with draftees, but his sole job in the military was a cook, who only fired a rifle twice during his entire military career, is a joke when it comes to issuing a concealed permit. At least have the requirement that they attended a class on the statute pertaining to concealed carry and know and understand the law, with a certificate issued by an approved trainer, either state certified or NRA certified. BTW I am both.

I don't really worry to much about those that carry here in TV, my biggest fear is those idiots that drive. Traffic circles are a death trap and everyone seems to be in a hurry to get somewhere fast.

I'm going with I2RdHD advise,

I do have a conceled permit here in NY got it for Deer hunting way back when. It was not a conceled type of pistol but the permits were easier to get back then.

I'm going with the advise of my friends. As with the depates of Elec vs Gas carts.

Both sides have good honest and at times emotional points. However never going to win a debate over the other.

IMHO i'ts easy. If you want to carry

1: Legal Permits
2: Class Room for the legal limits of the law, Range Instructors Carry Instructions. Range Practice and more Practice
3: It's a covert personel protection and is not to show off brag or threaten with.
4: Have fun at the target range drawing imaginary faces on targets!

Well maybe strike #4

Car Guy,

What were you shooting deer with in New York so you would need a Concealed Weapon License? Most people use a shotgun with slugs or even a "deer rifle" and those certainly cannot be concealed on your person.

I suppose you could use a .44 magnum but would have to be very good with it.
