The Des Moines Register reports that Iowa law doesn’t allow sheriffs to denya permit to carry a gun in public based on physical ability. Blind people canobtain the permits for carrying a weapon in public because of changes to statelaw that took effect in 2011. Jane Hudson with Disability Rights Iowa said keeping legally blind peoplefrom obtaining weapon permits would violate the Americans with Disabilities Act.She said federal law requires states to analyze a situation individually beforedenying a service. “The fact that you can’t drive a car doesn’t mean you can’tgo to a shooting range and see a target,” Hudson said. Some other states require anyone applying for a gun permit to provide proofof their visual ability by supplying a driver’s license or doctor’s statement. In Iowa, Polk County officials said they have issued weaponspermits to people who can’t drive legally because of vision problems at leastthree times.

I just don't think it's all that big of an ordeal! This brings me to another question: Why do we always think we can legislate and solve our problems? The enforcement branch has all they can handle now without adding completely useless and unenforceable laws to the workload? Just a thought!

You can have them in your car without restriction. If you don't have a permit in my state you are restricted on where you can be with your gun. In other words you can transport them without fear of getting them taken by the cops. You can use it as your voter ID, it is a state issued ID. It is fun at the airport to give the TSA your carry permit as your ID. BWWWWAHAHAHAHAAA. Blackbart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

In some cases it should not deny them a permit. In other words you do not have to be blind to be declared "legally blind". There should be some way to address each permit on a case by case basis. I can guarantee there are a lot of people out there, especially amongst our senior citizens, who damn well should not have a drivers license either or a gun permit.
