Another reason why we should not even have to ask "permission" for an ennumerated right, a la Arizona's in-state concealed carry law. It would be interesting to compare Tucson's or Phoenix's crime rate vs Chicago's.
I have had a CWP since 1976. We had the same thing happen here in South Dakota. The local liberal newspaper was demanding the names and address of all CWP holders. The Sheriffs office complied with their request but the names were never published. The State stepped in and stopped it.
I know that when/if I get pulled over that the officer behind me will know that I have this license to carry. So far it has never been a problem and I have never even had an officer ask if I have a handgun with me. I have always wondered why that is but it has never came up.
The Commercial Appeal in Memphis has a searchable database of permit holders. When it was first published it had name and full address, they have since clipped the address some.
Having a CWP or not having one won't make a bit of difference as to whether or not you're targeted for gun confiscation or not. When you live in western, up country, South Carolina you're a gun owner, period.
The primary reason I have one is that I WANT to be on their list. I want the list as large as possible, I wish there were another 40,000+ people who had the "permits" whether or not they ever intend to carry a concealable firearm with them or not.
I want the US government to continually counting the numbers.
The Democratic Party should have been given the registered voter list for all parties. In many states, mental defectives and felons are not allowed to vote. It would logical to presume that all registered voters keep and bear arms as they have the right to do so. If not, that is their right to choose, not the state's.

Damned straight!
I have a CWP, I've been buying firearms from gunshops since I was 23.
I'm sure that I'm on so many damned lists that it isn't even funny.
I want the gun-grabber brigades to look at my list, and I want them to wet their pants...
"Is he going to shoot at us with his MSAR STG? Or his RRA AR-15? Or the four FAL's he owns?"
And then I want them to realize that another line of work might be a real good idea.
I want them to look at Mexico now, and imagine what it's like to be a Federal Police officer there, dealing with psychotic drug barons who actively hunt them.
And I want them to think what it would be like here, but instead of dopers, they'll be hunted by citizens filled with seething anger and determination, who can shoot straighter than they can.
I want them to realize that all they'll be to some people is a mobile firearm, ammunition, and combat boot resupply point.
I want them to say to their gun-grabbing superiors "No, I won't go. YOU go and get them."
In Florida the list is fairly well-protected. But it makes no difference. First off, a CCW permit has no information on the ownership of any guns...it simply says that the holder MAY carry a concealed weapon, which could be a gun, a knife, a sap, a Taser, etc.
And if I DID have a gun, it would not be registered. The purchase form is held for 60 days and then destroyed. Yeah, I've had a background check done on me, and I've been finger-printed, but I had at one time a Top Secret clearance, outside the military, so they already have records on me.
A significant downside to Concealed Carry is the abuse one may have to endure when encountering LEOs in the most innocent of situations.
Getting pulled over for a dead license plate bulb can result in LEOs manhandling you and your vehicle occupants in what escalates into a felony stop once they run your plates and it comes back that you may be carrying.
All in the name of LEO 'safety'.
Horror stories and videos abound on the net regarding this.

"The Democrats intended to target people who support the Second Amendment -- the constitutional right to bear arms -- with campaign information"
I think the first 11 words are the truth; the remainder of that statement are BS and fluff.

Never register a gun under any circumstances for any reason. Ever.
Word verif: wifthees. "I keel jou wif thees."

Couldn't he just call up the FBI and ask for a list of those who were screened?
THEY ONLY WANTED TO WHAT?
BULL SHIT!

Democrats want to "target" me? Well, I really don't want to play this game, but if I must...

I hope that the people on our side have been making lists and checking them twice.

Guns dont kill people. Lists kill people.

Keep and bear.
