Now there's an idea for 2017! The MOMS will be going crazy, crazier than they are, that is.

I'm pro 2A, obviously, and really don't want to discriminate against anyone ... but a blind shooter?? C'mon...

I remember laughing hard when I saw an elevator that had the federally mandated braille numbers and wording on it's signage. It was funny because it was a parking garage elevator; but hey, rules is rules...
A close friend of mine for many years was blind since birth, and I took her shooting several times - she did quite well all considering.

Also let her drive my car a couple of times, on an abandoned airstrip. :cool:

They removed the amendment, which makes sense to me, because that amendment is not needed anyway. There are already laws in place that require LEOs to have a reason before asking to see your CHL.

As it is a crime to open carry a sidearm without a CHL, the mere observation of person with a holster handgun is an articulated suspicion for LEO to stop the suspect and check his CHL.
I feel exactly the opposite. Absent any reasonable suspicion that criminal activity is taking place, open carry in and of itself must be treated as not criminal and does not justify a stop to check CHL, just as it is not an articulated suspicion that anyone driving a car is doing so without a license.
