Both Damsel and I submitted (on line) renewal applications for our Arizona Concealed Weapons Permits last month. The new permits arrived today and we are impressed with the new format showing a desert motif picturing mountains, a cactus and a roadrunner. Very nice. (Vital Statistics graphically Removed for Privacy.)<\/p>\n

Not visible in the (clickable) photocopy above, are the watermarks that appear under certain light conditions which reveal a large number of concentric circles and a logo of the Arizona Department of Public Safety. All in all, we both are happy with the new format.<\/p>\n

Since Arizona is actually a “Constitutional Carry” State, we don’t need to have a concealed permit at all. However, due to an unnecessary and UNCONSTITUTIONAL law in the US CODE, unless you have a CWP permit issued in the state where you are carrying, you are prohibited from coming within 1000 feet of any school: <\/p>\n

18 U.S.C. \u00a7 922(q)(2)(A) Makes it unlawful for any individual to knowingly possess a firearm that has moved in or affects interstate commerce at a place the person knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

. The exception that we are interested in is: <\/p>\n

State-Licensed Permit Holders: Carried by an individual holding a valid concealed carry permit issued by the state in which the school zone is located, provided state law required background\/qualification verification. (Note: Reciprocal out-of-state permits generally do not qualify for this federal exemption).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Because of the exception noted above, we have to be very careful of where we go in the RV since we don’t have carry permits for other than Arizona and Utah. Of course, the law is Bullshit in the first place and needs to be struck down.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, and due to election fraud, we believe that our two Senators, both Democrats, are in office. It falls on deaf ears when we suggest to them that some of these rules need to be struck down.<\/p>\n

Pray for righteous leaders to rise and prevail in the elections ahead of us. We are. Thank you for your attention in this matter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
