CCW Permit? Why bother?

Bottom line is we should NOT have to ask for permission ( permit ) to carry.

Our Constitution is our permit!!!!!🇺🇸

If criminals can conceal carry so will I.

My state, Louisiana, just passed Constitutional (no permit) Carry. We are state number 28 to do so.

SHALL NOT INFRINGE.. IT IS A RIGHT!!! NOT A PRIVILEGE...DO WE NEED A PERMIT FOR FREEDOM OF SPEECH ASWELL???

If you don't need "Permission" from the government, DON'T! I live in Commiechusetts. I can't go to the bathroom without a permit and "permission". It is terrible and not what our founding fathers wanted for us.

"Speak softly and carry a big stick", when the advertisement came on my ear drums got a surprise. More guns in public, less crimes committed, this has been a proven fact.

Sheriff, I'm not a resident of Missouri but I definitely appreciated hearing your perspective on the issues that you talk about. Thanks.

A good 15 minute look at history is a permit to carry

The 2nd Amendment is my CCW...

As a New York gun owner I find it very refreshing to see a sheriff or police chief giving this information.

You state a few reasons that are very nuanced IMO. Most people would not have issue with any of this of they lived 1000 years. On the other hand, if you do have a CCW permit, that is an entry in a government database, and we all know how that is a huge liability. I pay no attention to signs telling me I don't have a right that I know I have. Concealment is the key.

I’m in AL. I do appreciate your openness & the “you might want to if..” discussion. Growing up in a hunting family, I learned gun safety & shooting from the time I was 4. (My dad started taking me squirrel hunting with my older brothers.) When I purchased my first handgun, after a divorce I was advised by an old high school friend who was a LEO for a state agency not to get a permit (this was before AL became permit-less carry). His reasoning was no one in our nosy little county needed to know I had a gun, since I had 2 little girls & we were alone in a rural area. Fast forward 16 years, I’m married, my 2 “little girls” are 17 & 18, junior & senior in high school & my son is 8. Now, I’m getting ready to purchase my 18 year old daughter her first handgun for COLLEGE because I can’t trust college “police” to keep her safe from leftist ideological lunatics on campus nor can I trust the that a DA in her college town to keep criminals off the streets. This will be the scariest thing I’ve ever had to go through with her!!! I wasn’t scared when she went through a major back surgery when she was 12. I wasn’t scared when she started driving, because I had her on the interstate the very first day, I had her driving in storms, & her dad had her hauling a boat & equipment. What 15 year old gets that kind of training?!! My girls do! I wanted them self sufficient! Not the “I don’t need a man” mindset, but the when SHTF & she’s alone I don’t have to worry that she doesn’t have the ability to make it home. (Granted, as her mom I always worry!) But today, I feel the law is making harder for me to trust that she CAN make it safely! I’ve never been so nervous in my life!!! I’ve always been a stickler for the rules & I used to teach college, but I’m to the point that I don’t even care what her college’s rules are! I want her protected all of the time!!!!

Criminals do not care about permit why should I. 🤔There are many states that are permitless, it time to get rid of this stupid law!

Thank you SIR. I am a strong supporter of law enforcement. Very good at explaining the information you delivered. SC just became an open carry state without a permit a week and a half ago. CCW here for ten years now. Will always keep current. Thanks for your time sharing your knowledge. I just subscribed to your channel. Please keep informing AMERICA from your perspective.

as a Missouri resident about to turn 21 this was a wonderful video to stumble upon to keep me informed and up to date in my understanding of the minutia of concealed carry law. deep gratitude towards you sheriff.

Thank you sheriff for another educational and insightful video! I've been on the fence about this, but your video helps me consider all perspectives.

Thanks Sheriff for taking the time to produce this video. You made some valuable points. I'm for one a huge proponent of taking a CCW class and getting your permit regardless of your states laws, or wether your going to cross state lines or not.

I live in Ohio. We became permitless a year or so ago. I continue to keep my permit as it allows me to carry in over 30 other States that recognize my permit. Small price to pay for the expense.

Thank you, Sheriff Oller for your insights. You are a credit to the badge. I bet you run an outstanding operation that truly protects and serves! ❤
