Mr. Tolby's hatred of guns
From: "J.D. McKim" <[email protected]> Mr. Tolby, Your hatred of guns and gun owners must have clouded your reading comprehension
in this case. You wrote, �I did not agree with his defense. The law says carrying a concealed
deadly weapon without a permit within the immediate control of any person inside
a means of transportation is a violation. Very plainly, the law says do not
have a weapon within your reach that is concealed inside a car.� A holstered pistol is not a concealed weapon per ARS
13-3102 (F) �. . .
Subsection A, paragraph 2 of this section shall not apply to a weapon or weapons
carried in a case, holster, scabbard, pack or luggage which is carried within
a means of transportation or within a storage compartment, trunk or glove compartment
of a means of transportation.� Clearly, if the man�s pistol was holstered he was not committing an offense.
You dismiss the man�s argument that a holstered pistol in a vehicle is
not a concealed weapon, yet this is exactly what the law says. Regardless of
your personal opinions, aren�t you bound to uphold state law? You wrote, �Every study I have read says the odds are more likely that
a gun will do you or your family more harm than good.� Then you have neglected to read very much at all about the subject. Here are
some good starting points to learn more: You wanted me to ask myself, �Are the odds in my favor that my gun will
solve a problem, or will it create a problem?� Well, Mr. Tolby, I�ve
carried a gun for many years and it has never caused any problems. And I wouldn�t
be able to write you this missive if I hadn�t had it the one time I really
needed it. J.D. McKim To Get Your Letters Printed Here |
