I live in madison county ga, I have been arrested for a few felonys but all have been drop or lowered to misdemeanor charges in 2007-2009. I was arrested for domestic violence about 2 years ago ( my ex-wife hit me we were both arrested) but it was completely dropped in court. Will any of this prevent my ccw? I was never convicted of it nor plead guilty to it. Any help would be great thanks
I have a ccw question maybe y'all can help me out

Check with the dept you applied with for the ccw . Some states list things in the application that will prevent you from obtaining the license .

As you are a former wife beater as well as other unscrupulous acts, I for one would like to see you remain permit less...
First post and one with a very sketchy background....

Let's focus on the part where he says "my ex-wife hit me we were both arrested"
Where do you see 'Wife Beater' in this post?
You may not believe it Charles, but there are Men that are abused by Women. Sometimes because of the antiquated belief that a man should NOT strike a woman. Lord knows I'm not one of them to just go out and condone striking or beating wives. But EQUAL RIGHTS is EQUAL. If a woman strikes me, I will Strike Back. If a woman threatens my life, I will exercise my 2A Rights same as I would against a man.
Pick on his other unnamed Felonies dropped to misdemeanors if you will, but he explained the 'Domestic Violence.' He was attacked. Charges were dropped.

Might, might not.
Several reasons for my vagueness. We don't know what state you are in. We really don't know what the actual charges that you were convicted were. The fact that there was a domestic violence charge in there (despite it being dropped) might cause problems.
The best you can do is either: try and see then work on getting things expunged, or seek a lawyer first and be brutally honest with them with your facts.
Edit: we do know what state you are in. My apologies, but the rest of questions are valid. Try to find out if you can get it, if you can't ask for the reason, get a lawyer and see what you can do about it.

Glad I am not the only one who thought this way from the getgo. Too many red flags as far as I am concerned

Dear Diary,
Today I learned that today's definition of a "wife beater" is a man who's wife has hit him. I can hardly wait to learn more Newspeak definitions tomorrow.

None of those apply to me. And for the record I DID NOT HIT MY EX-WIFE. She hit me in the face when she was drunk and mad. It got completely dropped in court. In ga if domestic violence occurs at your household both people go to jail if you cannot come to an agreement on who did what.... With that being said that's why I was arrested and I was dismissed of it.

Guy's wife goes to hit him with a shoe and he grabs her arm to stop her putting a bruise on her wrist (as an example). Guy gets arrested for domestic violence because the wife had the bruise. Does that make him a "wife beater"? Domestic violence charges are tossed around like giveaway candy these days because they are politically popular - you know - like gun control laws.

This is the point I was trying to make Navy. Thanks for being a little more succinct than me.
Here's another one to make based on Charles' attitude or people that agree with him. It's ok for a woman to attack them or rob them, etc violently. They won't defend themselves and will even allow themselves to be killed because to hit a woman would be wrong. So woman, go find these types of individuals and marry them and beat them. Woman, go find them and rob them. They don't mind. They've already said any man who defends themselves is a 'wife beater' and doesn't deserve a permit to carry a gun, so they won't defend themselves either.
Exactly

Based on his post and the questionable felonies that have been downgraded(?) to misdemeanors, he is already proved himself untrustworthy to me.
Now if you think that he was the "victim" of spousal abuse, based on his own shady past, you go ahead and give him a shoulder to cry on.... Not me.
He has no trouble and he has no shame admitting that to us that he has had multiple run ins with the law.
I think he is not telling us the truth (in whole or in part) on ANY of his "Troubles".
Guys like him don't get beat by their wives. They are the ones doing the beating.
Like I said, if you want to let him cry on your shoulder, you go right ahead!
In my book, he sounds like the "kinda guy" that should remain PERMITLESS.....
Ymmv...
