Editor:

Now that the complete text of Proposition B has been published, we can see just how much disinformation its opponents have been spreading. Let's look at the what the text really says:

• An applicant must take a 12 hour training course (at his own expense) and pay an $80 fee

• An applicant must be over 21, and not publicly known to abuse alcohol or drugs.

• An applicant can't have any felonies or misdemeanors involving firearms - even as a juvenile!

• An applicant must be fingerprinted and the prints checked at state level and by the FBI.

• The Sheriff can take up to 45 days to complete the review.

• Virtually anyone can swear an affidavit complaining that a license holder is no longer eligible - an affidavit that must be answered in small claims court.

• A license holder may NOT carry a concealed firearm into church, school, or any property owned or occupied by any government agency (yes, Arrowhead Stadium is government-owned).

• Anyone may post a sign prohibiting concealed weapons in any building they own or lease.

Please see my previous letter on this issue.
