Residents call for more background checks for lifetime gun permit holders

The state of Indiana exempted all state fees back in July making access much easier to obtain the life long title, but one thing some residents are concerned about those approved only have to go through background checks once during the application process.

Maybe I missed the part where the residents calling for this actually were quote or appeared in this short Michiana News segment, probably not.

Facts...They don't need no stinking facts. They just get in the way

Despite the concerns, Gammge says that most of the gun violence being seen within our area isn't connected to lifetime license holders so while he's open to completing follow up checks moving forward he doesn't believe it should be something required annually.

Most? I wonder if he can name one lifetime LTCH holder who has committed a gun crime?

Remember it is not "gun violence" it is "people violence" -- Period!!! Guns do not get up and fire themselves. The human excrement that don't value life are the ones the "authorities" need to go after full scale. The police and other law enforcement know who the bad guys are but are hamstrung by idiot politicians and their leftist idealisms. The gangs and the drug dealers are the ones who do not care about any laws and particularly laws regarding firearms. There are documented gangs who do nothing but obtain and sell firearms in an underground economy. Yet law enforcement does not actively go after these low lifes on a regular basis. Start doing street sweeps and see the positive results. I double dog dare the politicians to let this happen. Peace and love!

Mr. Blatt was kind enough to leave his email and phone on his fb page. Tell him what you think.

Blatt is a lawyer in SB. Not a bad guy. I think he styles himself a 2nd Amendment supporter, but he's certainly no Guy Relford. I don't think Blatt has tried to do any 2A leadership in Indiana such as drafting opr promoting legislation.

I'm not sure, but Blatt MAY even be a member here. I know he has a couple of close friends who are.

Based upon their performance on FB, i would be hesitant to believe anything I read from ABC57.

Well, yeah. it's a pretty poor excuse for a network affiliate even for a non-major market one. We never watch it in our household, preferring CBS and NBC in that order out of SB. IIRC pre-cable, we could barely pull in their signal OTA.

My biggest recollection of them was preempting, completely, for an hour or more, the INDY 500 because of a thunderstorm warning when most of their viewing area had clear, blue skies. And their constant blather had no new content.

Honestly, I think ABC news nationally is mostly prattle.

Literally NO ONE in the print of broadcast versions of that story "called for more background checks." Of course, this tells you it was a reporter/editor fabricated way to frame the story.

Bizarre.

So what will spending money on background checks on licensees accomplish?

Notifications of arrests are sent to the Indiana State Police for suspension.

Who is "calling" for this other than an editor in the Media? What will it accomplish? If we do it, it will be paid from the pension of the Indiana State Police.
