I would like to hear from Mr. Koops, because obviously, as the department representative here in drafting this, there had to be some rationale behind restricting ATTs. I am struggling to historically determine when previously....
We all know that law-abiding gun owners are less likely than anybody to commit a crime. They follow the rules in the transport of weapons. I can't think of ever reading or hearing or of any news issues where someone lawfully transporting a firearm, who, as a licensed firearm owner, created an issue such that we have to restrict the ATTs.
Please enlighten me as to the rationale behind this and how it will be accomplished.
