Having to renew a license to carry every 5 years is a burden. I have had a carry license since I was 18 years old, but do not have one currently because of that exact burden.
One should not have to jump through hoops or pay a fee to exercise a constitutional right. The courts have ruled that poll taxes and restrictions on voting are unconstitutional. Why should the second amendment be different?
People know that you can't shoot someone except in self defense. Many states never had a training requirement to obtain a concealed carry permit, and that has not been a problem. Nor has there been a problem in the 19 or so states that have constitutional carry.

The author is a 10th Amendment troglodyte.
The 14th Amendment exists precisely to delegate to the federal government the authority to impose the Bill of Rights on the states.
Wake up, dude. The 10th Amendment still has its purpose, but as it pertains to the Bill of Rights, state power has effectively been attenuated by the constitutional process of delegating that power to the United States. It is therefore legitimate, and that's the reality. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.... We've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of government himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price. — Ronald Reagan |
