   The handgun permitting procedure is an absolute disaster…especially renewals. That department is currently just beginnig to process renewals that were received in early April and the process is taking 4 months to complete.

   I’m certain the voters in his district can’t wait to overlook the years of wonderful service he’s provided them and vote for a Gooper because he misspoke about a concealed carry permit. Yup, that’s a winner to me, Hobbsie. Back to sleep.

   How pathetic. B-Ho is pulling a chapter from his sorry past. Remember when his lame-ass candidate for governor, BIG (Loser) Jim Bryson, got hammered for lying about having a hunting license in Tennessee when he had never even applied for one. Then Bryson’s lame-ass spokesperson lied and said Bryson had a hunting license in Arkansas. Nope, Bryson never applied for one there either. Oh, yeah, and then Bryson said that skeet shooting counted as hunting. What a riot.

   Sorry, B-Ho, this ain’t even close. Naifeh was in the process of getting a permit. We know you’re still smarting from the beating you and Bryson took, but this won’t ease your pain.

   I hope nontrustwhorthy SOB get beat his next re-election try. He has been a bur in the sides of gun owners and sportsmen since his first day in office. This ain’t his first lie he has got caught up in, but he come out smelling like a rose.

   “A majority of Americans want more and stronger gun control laws.”

   Really? How come so many polititions tell their lies on the pro gun side?

   It coul db eworse… I used to reside in Massachusetts-they have a long history of treating gun-owners ( other than cops ) as pariah.

    Four months to process a renewal? With computers, checking some one’s background takes a few seconds. This enourmous delay is made on purpose to exasperate and disgust applicants. Telling people they must wait four months before getting their lifesaver is like telling them to wait four months before they can breathe. If you accept this insulting delay (and you have no choice; they blackmail you), officials have the perverted satisfaction of seeing you begging, like a dog asking for a bone. You get your permit but this pleasure is ruined by the delay. And slimy officials have made you understand it’s not a human right, but only a precarious advantage dependant on their arrogant whims. This widespread humiliation does not happen by accident; it’s designed to convince people that they can’t hope to have their human rights enforced immediately. If private sector workers argued they need four months to renew a card, they would go bankrupt and be locked up in the deranged cretin’s room.

    So Speaker Jimmy “misspoke?”

    That must be some kind of Dimocrat codeword for what the rest of us would call a bald-faced lie. “Misspoke” does sound ever so much nicer, and when it’s something you do routinely, any little comfort is appreciated, I’m sure.

    It took me 15 minutes from the time I walked into the Sheriff’s office until I left with my permit. I live in Pennsylvania.

    Wow, after reading these posts about the hassle involved in getting a carry permit in Tennessee, I’m happy I’ve moved to Ohio nine years ago. The process is all computerized here, and gone too is the waiting period to purchase a handgun…the process took me less than an hour.

    Naifeh wouldn’t get elected if it weren’t for all the corruption by the Democrat political machine here in TN. I’ve heard some people in his district vote for him twice, or they risk losing their government benefits. He should set up his campaign office in a cemetery, because the dead love him. Naifeh: Vote early & often.
