I had a thought when I applied for my C&R. Police, and other active and retired law enforcement personell get their fees waived and renewal fees waived. My thought was, why not active duty, Retired and Honorably discharged vets get that same break? I am all for paying for the initial background check as this does require time and effort. The regular fees however in my opinion for the above mentioned should be the same as law enforcements.
Agree? Disagree? What do you think?
Thank you for bringing me back to the world brother. I almost forgot. For a moment there I thought that we lived in my fathers America. By the way, does anyone know what the hell happened? What is so wrong with that America anyway?
My youngest(25) said to me one day out of the blue."Dad, when you guys are gone, this place is gonna go straight to hell."
All I could say was: We taught our values to you young man and now it is up to you to live them and teach them to your sons and daughters. All we can pray for is that there is enough of us left.
United States Constitution, Amendment 14, Section 1 (in part):
"No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
If anyone has their fees waived because they are a particular class of person, everyone should get their fees waived.
Period.
Sorry, just the "radical" libertarian in me...
When I applied for my local CCW permit, I had to indicate my veteran status but received no waived fees, and in another state I have CCW in, they required my DDForm 214.
I read the post regarding free drivers licenses for vets, I'll have to check into that as I just moved to a new state.
Thanks to all that served and are still serving, hope you're doing well.
