What about this makes sense? Put the paranoia aside for a moment here, and think this through.
Any time you are required to use a weapon in public, you're going to be expected to produce your permit, according to Walt and also common sense. So that means that either:
A) the first time you need your weapon they're going to throw you in jail, and then they'll know everything about you down to your rectal diameter, or
B) You never use the weapon even in cases where it's warranted for fear of A coming to pass, in which case you might as well not have it to begin with.
Here's a crazy thought: if you don't agree with having to have a permit to carry a concealed weapon, don't carry a concealed weapon. It's not like it's going to do you any good if you ever need it anyway.
