What would you do if...

[Guest nraforlife]

In the interest of stirring it up.

What would you do if you were denied a HCP or had it revoked because you got caught carrying in a 'posted' area or broke some other regulation? - Not one of the ones like DUI. Would you still carry?

And seeing how carrying without a permit is illegal how many trips to jail would it take before you stopped carrying?

In my situation, being a resident of KY... if my CWL was revoked for some reason, I would simply open carry in order to go armed. Since my state does not require approval or a permit/license to open carry, I'd still be able to protect myself.

I personally do not like the open carry method, but if that's the only means I have to carry a firearm for personal defense... then I'll gladly do it.

If I resided in a state that did not allow carry of a firearm, in any method, without a permit... well... my decision would only be known to myself and God.

If I screw up and my HCP gets revoked I'm moving to Kentucky with Verbal! ::note to self,do not use KY acronym when referring to Kentucky::

I hope I'm never forced to make a decision like that. I guess ultimately I'd petition relentlessly for restoration of my rights and/or move to a more gun-owner friendly state with laws similar to those of Kentucky.

PS: I wouldn't be doing my job as a moderator if I didn't remind everyone that Rule #3 in our Code of Conduct states that we need to avoid discussing illegal activities including the act of circumventing laws.

Gun owners are much maligned by the media as is. The last thing we need to do is discuss how we would thumb our nose at the law and carry despite having that right removed from us by the State. As silly as it may sound that rights can be revoked.

Depending on the crime, it looks like I would move to Kentucky or Vermont.

[Guest GT_Rat]

I'd get used to cold weather and move to Alaska.

At close self-defense range, there are other weapons that will suffice almost as well as a gun, and they are legal to carry.

[TGO David]

Upon further reflection, I'd just make sure that I took my legally armed wife with me everywhere we went.

[Shima]

Good idea. Let's get all our wives (spouses - for the ladies) legally armed.

[molonlabetn]

I would do the legal thing, and be a state-mandated victim, of course.

[DWARREN123]

Do not do something to get my HCP revoked and Don't ask Don't tell !

[Guest GUTTERbOY]

I bet there's some nice property in Vermont...

[Guest jackdog]

Guess wifey will be my shadow. But there are other legal weapons for close quarters combat.
