[blparent] Guns (was A total stranger crosses the line)

[Michael Baldwin]

yes it does very by state. But no state that I know of forbids a blind
person from purchasing or owning a gun. Carrying a concealed weapon is a
different story. here in Nebraska a vision test is required, or a valid
driver's license. I own 3 guns, and after doing the proper paper work, my
county Sherriff had no issues with issuing me a permit to purchase.
 
Even as a blind parent we, my wife and I, take our daughters out target
shooting, teaches the kids respect and proper behavior around firearms.
 
 Just like we would teach them proper safety around a swimming pool.

interesting post. I didn't know that a totally blind person could get a gun
permit. does this vary state by state? just curious.

Being that I have the same rights as cited people. Remember the quality we
ask for? That means I carry any gun concealed as long as I'm not a
prohibited possessor. Also, I am totally blind. But very well-trained. I
have owned assault rifles, handguns, and rifles. As well as shotguns. I have
been trained by police officers and former military men. I have training in
firearm retention, meaning how well I could keep my gun from others. As well
as combat shooting meaning to close quarters shooting range and firing of my
firearm. I know you're shocked, and I expect most people too. But again we
all asked for it call me as blind people, and I take all that you call me I
could get. I'm also a business owner an idyllic cash and I do with sensitive
documents and monies from other people but I need to keep safe as well.
Again remember the inequality that we all 54?

Seriously?  Can you see at all?  Can a blind person get a concealed weapons
permit, as opposed to say a gun license for shooting at a range?  Would you
really shoot someone for trying to help you cross the street, even if you
didn't want to go?  I'm not picking on you, Gabe, please don't take it that
way.  I'd ask these questions of anyone who posted what you just did; I'm
stunned.

Or, you could always carry a gun. I do. It is a Keltec P32 with a seven
round clip. I always have one chambered so in total I carry 18 rounds on me.
I also carry a 10 round extra magazine in my back pocket.
