Carnage on a Norweigan Island

[marbleheadmaui]

So do you have to prove you are ok or at least sane somehow to get a gun or gun license or dont licenses exist out there?
From here it seems that any fool can carry one around, so the regulations must be very lax.

I live in a near-commie state, Hawaii.

VERY strict regulations. Must pass a test, can only buy one handgun a year, tough to get a carry permit etc.

I more or less ignore them. What's the old saying? I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by six?

The regs vary from state to state, by a lot.
The one reg I think is most useful and folks who fear guns have the biggest problem with is concealed carry. Can you imagine being a criminal and not knwoing if your target is armed or not? Or if the next guy over is? Can you imagine how much more cautious you'd be?
