the 2nd question on the permit application asks if you have ever been convicted or entered a plea of first offender, guilt/nolo for ANY drug offense. under that question it states that you don't need to continue the app if you checked yes, not eligible.
convicted felons however, are given instructions about how to contact the parole board and request pardon. you can't get a pardon if you aren't a felon!!
every judge, cop, politician, lawyer i have talked to in person and on the phone agrees that this is stupid, needs to be fixed, but none of them have the balls to step up yet.
i can see the election ad now; "Sen. Fubar supports allowing KNOWN drug offenders to carry concealed WEAPONS. Please, vote Dipshit. Vote for decent, working families and vote NO to thug armies of substance abusers prowling our neighborhoods."
my request for expungement is free at least, just depends on what the D.A. wants to do with it. if he says no, we'll have a fight. |
