MO: Missouri Catholic bishops urge defeat of gun bill allowing concealed carry without training

The leaders of the Catholic Church in Missouri are calling on lawmakers to uphold Gov. Jay Nixon’s veto of a bill that would eliminate the need to obtain a permit to carry a concealed gun in public.

In a joint statement, the bishops of the four dioceses of Missouri called the legislation “a move in the wrong direction” that would be “detrimental to public safety and the common good.”

Training is great, yet there are considerations of mandating such. Why can't the permit providers give a big discount for your license to carry, when you show proof of a credible training course?
 
Comment by: mzanghetti (8/18/2016)
I like the idea of a permit discount if you get training, but I have another question, what business is it of the Catholic Church to actively campaign against a particular piece of legislation? They can preach in their churches and I have no problem with them laying out church teaching but you can expand just war theory to actually support the idea of self defense. I think they were wrong to come out in support of not overriding the Governors veto.
