A bill that would relax Indiana’s concealed carry guns laws will go to a summer study committee.
The Indiana House and Senate voted Friday to study whether a person who has a civil protection order, which stems from domestic violence, should be allowed to temporarily obtain a gun without a permit.
The same committee would also study the issue of constitutional carry, which calls for abolishing requirements that a person carrying a concealed gun have a permit.
The committee will run studies on what might happen if carrying a gun becomes license-free for a period of time. Also, the committee is instructed to identify people that should be restricted from obtaining a gun and compile data on handgun usage in Indiana. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
