What's going on in Indiana that requires a poll? It's been something like 70 years since the state passed their CCW bill.

Anyway, here's the poll. The box is the third from the bottom on the left side. http://www.indystar.com
 
There was a shooting a month or so ago in southern Indiana that killed a couple people. Outside of that I don't know of anything to spark this poll. I will need to check around while I am up in Indy today.
 
There's been rumor floating around that an indystar writer is planning a gun piece in the near future. Question's have been posted on a local gun store's bulletin board asking for our opinions. I imagine this poll is directly related to that writer.

67% - Yes
33% - No
 
A few sticklers...

That same training requirement now means that most states' permits, including Indiana's, aren't valid in Ohio

If that was the case, then Washington wouldn't have a reciprocity agreement with Indiana. This is simply false.

Walker, 41, was sitting in his car on the Eastside when a man asked for a ride. When he refused, the man spat at him, then backed up and acted as if he were reaching for a pistol, Walker said.

Walker grabbed his .38-caliber revolver and fired, wounding the man in the neck.

Walker fled, called 911 and returned to the scene to surrender.

He faces felony battery charges.


I hope he wins in this case. Sorry, but when you act violent and then start reaching for something, expect to get shot.

And one sure way to look unstable is to ride your bike around town with a pistol on your hip, like one guy in Richmond did.

"It's legal -- it's just not showing very much common sense," Ezell said. "He admitted it. He said he was doing it to provoke the police."

At his hearing, Durnil let him keep his permit. But Durnil also suggested he maybe show a little more restraint.


Someone want to follow up with this and see what they're talking about...it's legal to open carry in the state with an Indiana LTCF or a permit from another state. What was the state police thinking in attempting to revoke his permit?
