It is incontrovertible that CCW programs help deter crimes virtually everywhere they exist. The Florida experience is typical.
I would like to propose that President Trump, via Executive Order, direct the creation and implementation of a National CCW Permitting Program where permits would be issued on a "Shall-Issue" basis. It would include a background check, and the only basis for a denial of Permit would be a failure of said check.
The permit issue would be valid and enforceable by the Federal Government in ALL states and territories, and a refusal or failure of State of Local governments/agencies to honor such permits would be considered to be, and handled as, a violation of Civil Rights and prosecutable under cognizant federal statutes.
Once the procedures and process are crafted, operation of the program can be handled by the NRA and/or other gun-rights focused Civil Rights NGOs, funded by a small administrative fee.
Such a program would take a HUGE bite our of crime.
It would be held up for many years by the courts. Several states have constitutional carry by state law. We are not eager to give that up.
they wouldn't need to give it up, and it is time that the Executive Department to stop being vetoed by a co-equal branch that has taken it upon itself to do so. Ignore them and their over-reaches. Set aside THEIR decisions just as they think they can set aside yours. The tyranny of unelected tyrants in black robes must end.

I'd like a national speech licensing program. You must prove you have the ability to compose sane thoughts and post them on the internet before you are granted this license. It can be revoked if you are reported to the Free Speech Bureau for insane posts on public forums.
