Just need your opinion on this

If they have a CCW permit... You bet!

If you are not an LEO I think you need a permit just like the rest of the world. It is no big deal to get so just do it.

I voted yes. I think everyone (non felon) should have the option to open carry.

I have to agree.... everyone should be able to bare arms....

it is our constitutional right

I agree everyone has the right to bare arms. But what gives said person the right to openly bring a gun onto someone's property and force them to come with them because they skipped bail. Wouldn't this be the same as a cop?

I think if that's the case I should be able to openly carry my gun with me and force my renters to pay me rent when they are 2 days late.

It's the fact that a) you will have a ton of untrained bondsman out there with guns on them thinking they can use them to enforce the law (they are bondsman not police officers) and b) you will be willingly going onto private property with your weapon using it as a sign of force (whether or not you even take it out the holster) when all you are is a public civilian with a bondsman license not an officer of the law.

Just curious here - what rights does a bondsman have to go onto/into private property to go after a subject that skipped?

In the United States legal system, the 1873 U.S. Supreme Court case Taylor v. Taintor, 16 Wall (83 U.S. 366, 21 L.Ed. 287), is cited as having established that the person into whose custody an accused is remanded as part of the accuser's bail has sweeping rights to recover that person.

Here you go.

"Shall not be infringed" is really not that difficult to understand.

Edit: Under current laws, I really don't know... I'm just saying in a most perfect, Constitutional world, yeah, they should.

I think more than a cop.

I think more than a cop.

That may be, but I am here to tell you that kicking in my door, or entering my home or vehicle uninvited, is an excellent way to get 1. dog bit and 2. shot.

Just saying ...

I think they are using an old law that gives them powers even cops don't have, to break in and arrest.
0352Marine knows more about that.

That could be.

I guess my deal is that everyone makes mistakes (just look at the errors the police departments make) and because I KNOW that I don't have anything that needs to be repossessed or any outstanding warrants, the logical thing for me to think if they come tearing into my house is "home invasion".

I think anyone who is not a felon should be able to carry a gun however they chose.
