New twist in the previous post about retroactively applying the standards in place at time app is submitted. Will have to think the ramifications. This *might* point towrds waiting and watching.
* Notwithstanding above developement , this is what I intended to write instead. *
At some point we need to quantify our degree of optimism. At the most wildly optimistic, merely writing down Self Defense will automaticly reflect reasonable fear of aprehended danger. Below that would be "some" reason specific to the applicant , but judged against a different standard as current. Hypothetically could be 99% of the way to Shall Issue , 99% of current scheme , or anywhere inbetween.
Everything BBGun177 sugguested is 100% true, but will still translate as " Self Defense and Lawful Purposes "
( Holding final paragraph in abayance pending further insight into the game changer of back dating MSP criteria.)
I agree it still translates to Self Defense and Lawful Purposes. I was trying to come up with an example of why Self Defense was needed and what better way to show that than the MSP and all other policing agencies in the state have no duty to protect the citizen.
I don't know if this will fly or if some other wording can be developed. I recognize that it's a crap shoot going in. I know it's like hunting you don't get a chance at any game if you are sitting on the sofa. I figure it's time to get off the sofa.
