Apparently Florida gives them to morons.



Apparently Florida gives them to people who qualify, but are unable to predict the future. I'll be they also give driver's licenses to people who end up driving drunk, marriage licenses to people who will end up divorced, and even business licenses to people who will go bankrupt!

Hey Andy9o8, does this post qualify as a troll?

seem to recall you just posting earlier one of your favorite lines about anecdotes not being data.



So what are Florida's standards for issuing a permit and how did the morons circumvent them??

Background check (no felonies or involuntary commitments) and a training class, IIRC. I highly doubt these people "circumvented" them. I do agree that the guy arrested for opening fire from the door of the store is a moron. The other permit holder was not arrested. As a matter of fact, he was injured.

There aren't any "intelligence" tests. At least none beyond read, write and be able to pass the class.

There aren't any sanity tests either.

This sort of thing happens on occasion, rarely, but they happen. The major media usually picks up on them because they are sensational.

Did you hear about the drunk driver who killed a mom with 2 young children recently? I doubt it. It doesn't make the news. How could that moron have gotten a driver's license? How could he have circumvented the process that determines a person's future actions and decides who is going to kill someone else?

Oh right...
There isn't one.

Huh, a guy gets attacked in his car and he is a moron?

FL standards are easy to find... But I'll do it for you since you are too lazy to look them up.

http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=0700-0799/0790/Sections/0790.06.html

Or if you want the simple version:
1. You must be 21 to get a conceled carry permit.
2. Have a passport-style, color photograph made.
3. Get verification of training that satisfies the training requirement. NRA, DD-14, state training course, etc. . Persons serving in the United States Armed Forces may submit a copy of their Military ID Card to satisfy the training requirement.
4. Get certified copies of court documents relating to any criminal charges against you.
5. Take the fingerprint card to a local law enforcement agency and ask to be fingerprinted. In addition to providing fingerprinting services for the traditional “hard-card” format, electronic fingerprint devices are available at almost all 67 county sheriff’s offices in the state. Visit the Electronic Fingerprints Information page to learn how Live Scan fingerprinting saves processing time.* http://licgweb.doacs.state.fl.us/CWCS/elecfingerprintinfo.html
6. Complete the application. Either print clearly with ink or type the information.
7. In the presence of a notary, sign application.**
8. Submit a check or money order for the license fee of $117

* Electronic fingerprinting can dramatically reduce the permit approval time.
** Some concealed carry courses have a notary available at the time of the class

Required Documents:
1. Application form
2. Passport photo
3. Training verification

I am sure they used the same type of legal process that people who turn out to be drunk drivers got a drivers license.

Do you have a better suggestion than current law? Or are you just upset that the best compromise is not good enough for you?

If so, would you apply it to driver's licenses?

Or voter identification?
