Pennsylvania Attorney General's Assumption that Closing Gun Law Loophole is Constitutional is DEAD WRONG

February 9, 2013

Is it an oversight or simply lack of knowledge? Does she not realize that the premise gun control itself IS unconstitutional? 

Kathleen Kane, Pennsylvania’s new Democratic attorney general has announced her first initiative since taking office, and it’s a new gun control measure for the state.

Kane is going after a gun law loophole that lets Pennsylvania residents obtain concealed carry permits online from Florida, sometimes even when they can’t be approved for one in Pennsylvania.

Kane announced the decision Friday in Philadelphia. Kane says about 4,000 Pennsylvanians have obtained Florida permits since 2001 which would allow them to buy weapons at stores or gun shows in Pennsylvania.

The attorney general also says that often leads to illegal gun sales, as she announced an agreement with officials in Florida that closes that loophole.

“It does not violate the Second Amendment. There are many things that we can do and our society, like our laws, need to evolve; we are no longer the people from 200 years ago,” said Kane.

Residents with concealed carry permits from Florida residing in Pennsylvania will have four months to obtain a valid Pennsylvania permit.

And these are the people in charge of law enforcement?
