As a follow-up to my recent column on competing concealed carry bills in Iowa, I have invited representatives from state gun rights groups Iowa Gun Owners and Iowa Carry to educate us on their positions. The following response is from Aaron Dorr, Executive Director of Iowa Gun Owners. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at one side of the story.

I spoke once with an Iowa cop that hated the idea of concealed carry. Of course, with "may issue", the only people that were getting permits were the good old boys club and friends of the sheriff. His experience with these priveleged few was that they were idiots waiting to cause an accident. A far cry from what is found in "shall issue" states, where responsible gun ownership is the norm.
