Will changes in Missouri’s Conceal and Carry Gun law impact public safety? The controversy over the law continues despite the Missouri Legislature’s successful override of Governor Jay Nixon’s veto of the bill (Senate Bill 656).
Beginning January 1, 2017, the new statute eliminates the current requirements for a permit issued by a local sheriff or county police department and the 8 hour gun safety course. Permits and the course will still be available and anyone who needs to carry a concealed gun into another state will need the permit. |

| I realize the constitutional problems with mandated training to carry a firearm. However, many problems await, possibly a backlash resulting in renewed gun control, when the training goes to the wayside. Wise citizens should insist on strong incentives for armed individuals to be trained. |

If challenged, the prohibition on licensed carry on public transportation will be found unconstitutional under 14th Amendment equal protection guarantees.
Someone should start that ball rolling. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
