I fully support a Constitutional Carry law in Indiana. I believe that requiring honest Hoosiers to apply for a permit to carry violates the 2nd Amendment.

Criminals do not apply for carry permits. Criminals do not walk into legitimate gun retailers to purchase a firearm. The laws that are currently on the books, as written, discourage responsible gun ownership and, as a direct byproduct, make it easier for criminals to gain the upper hand on law-abiding citizens.
