My fav quote from this article is this:
It's a bad idea to keep that information from criminals yes, because then they aren't sure WHO to rob!It is a bad idea to keep secret who has loaded guns in our communities, schools and public buildings, Portland Democrat Ginny Burdick said.
I always assumed Oregon was extremely gun friendly. When I took the CCW test all I needed was a letter from my supervisor stating I knew what I was doing with a handgun and he had confidence in me carrying a concealed handgun (I left my guncard at home in Alaska and was visiting Oregon) got my fingerprints taken along with a pic, CCW arrived in the mail 3 weeks later.
Then again I guess I grew up in the 'weird' part of the state (So. Or.)
