Let me make you feel a bit better then

In case you havent heard about James Fairbanks lately

Just one

Have yall heard anything about us supposedly getting constitutional carry this year? It's been pushed back 2 years running now, but supposedly theres a good chance it could actually run its course this year

The worry isn't so much the thing. The bit of relief it would bring though, that if I actually had to use my firearm, knowing I'm not "illegally carrying" when being questioned. I've been carrying without forever. I took a permit class once back in 17, but I didnt follow through with turning in paperwork. I've not been to another class, because in all honesty, I dont leave state much, and the only state I've planned on visiting doesnt acknowledge CCLs from out of state (Cali). So it's a lose lose either way.

I can talk my way out of 90% of the problems I deal with in these little towns, but like I said, itd be nice to know theres less problems if i do have to draw and i get to keep the principal alive of not needing permission

Finally have time for this. Not a current resident of Montana nor ever visited. Got some family up there though. Me and my family are looking at property up there, outside city limits to possibly have a personal range, and an area that's safe. Any recommendations on parts of the state? Cause it seems like Kalispell has the most availability

For the basic principle of my rights were never meant to be bought

Why give money to law enforcement that justifies giving them money to carry a firearm while police brutality is such a big hitter today. Or NRA instructors to hold the class and take that money while majorly misrepresenting firearm owners for greed?

Then pay a state government with proof I took an 8 hour class and fired 40 rounds through a handgun, just so they can further restrict my rights or squeeze more money out of me in taxes. Why is there a process in the first place just to determine if I can wisk my tshirt over a handgun that I paid for and have every right to do so with property I own?

We're out here fighting for the rights we should have had from the start, not fighting for us to get the rights we lost last week, ya know? Nothing in my mind justifies paying into a system that normally oppresses us, so we can sorta have a right I've been guaranteed to from birth

So because the rules aren't gonna change, we should just suck it up? And it's not crying about it, it's literally disobeying an unconstitutional rule put in place to make money off of you. To top it off, not obeying it isn't about the "just because" a form of government created it, but because it's a moral obligation for us to defend ourselves and NOT compromise too be able to do so.

I came from California so I've dealt with this to the extreme, and being Louisiana is a shall issue state, doesn't make it any less worse. Oh yeah, the government doesn't -

Want you to have those things, and you're right, hurdles are put in place. So we're obligated to jump them to prove them wrong? Or we can skip the nonsense and divwhatever we want because that's the way it should be, free men don't ask permission. We can continue to argue about this for weeks, but we're already seeing we have deeply rooted and very different opinions, which won't change anything.

So I'm saying, we probably shouldn't clog this chat with it. Especially since we only have one channel to talk about it. Did zoomer invite you to the Louisiana discord?

Its small because it was created right before he helped admin here

@[La]Taxation_is_theft well it's only halfway to being illegal here, so might as well be

Wife is being medically retired, I'm out of the army, so working isn't necessarily limiting because we bring in enough not to. I'd like to work, but I'd have to see what's even available. Just wanna find a place that's kinda nowhere but not so far I couldnt make it to a hospital if there was an emergency, ya know?

I'm in the VC and listening to their county dispatch or whatever they're talking through. Something new will pop up in the next few minutes because they're pulling all supervisors to front lobby and having all remaining officers covering down. So they're discussing what to do next, probably
