What a complete horse **** presentation from the lackey....who is himself armed in the state house.

There are certain things BigRed NEVER forgets.

It should be pointed out that it wasn't all police in opposition.
Truth.
Never said it was.
I'll still stand with no sign and no changing of light bulbs.
Those are awkward anyways, nice gesture, but awkward. It's unfortunate that Doug Carter has this opinion on Constitutional carry but I would imagine there isn't likely a State Police superintendent who feels otherwise, so this isn't surprising.
Anybody notice how many rank and file Troopers testified? That might carry more weight than some admin.

I didn't get to watch all of it, but I don't think there were any rank and file Troopers.
There were a couple of gang task force guys from Ft. Wayne that opposed it. They basically said it would make their job harder and everyone would die, that's after they said the gang members have circumvented the law already. So really what he said was what we have now doesn't stop them, but getting rid of what we have would somehow put everyone at risk.
There were a few County Sheriff's that were there in support.
Basically the Elected LEO we're in support and the appointed were against.
How do we think the numerous other states that have adopted constitutional carry got by their state police opposition?
And that disparity between elected and appointed enforcers of the law is why I have been pressing my representative to make all law enforcement head officers be elected. For any department head who is going to enforce the law of the state, they should be elected by the people.I didn't get to watch all of it, but I don't think there were any rank and file Troopers.

That is something that can be done via legislation. Start working your legislators to change any of the law such that all law enforcement department heads must be elected by the jurisdiction over which they hold authority. And the appointment of law enforcement department heads to separate them from the executive. That should include the superintendent of the Indiana State Police.

And the current sheriff of Hamilton County was there in support.
That is interesting…

I wonder if anyone on here knew Carter when he was Sheriff.
Did his views change when he was then appointed to the State?
