They just like passing laws because it gives the state more perceived power and it makes them look busy inspite of the corruption and impending fiscal doom.
Pretending to be offended does not make you a good person.

Yup.... symptoms of a corrupt, liberal shithole lead by a fuck-ing loser, his democratic swine compatriots in the legislature and a two bit, good for nothing, pond scum police department.....

So someone applies for a permit with HPD and if denied, HPD will have to notify HPD?

Exactly.  :wtf:

I guess it just mandates reporting to the higher ups.

Now idea what this will do though unless they make it illegal to apply when it is illegal to own.

Lying on the forms is already a crime.  No more laws are needed.

If you think we need more laws because the applicant will try to "sneak by" while truthfully answering disqualifying questions, you're no smarter than the applicant.

If they lie, it's a crime.  If they tell the truth, they'll be denied.  The latter should not be a crime. 

They may not know they are going to be denied until they apply -- the first time they try.  Next time, they'll know what answers are disqualifying.  If they lie the second time, it's a crime.  If they tell the truth again expecting different results, well, that's falling into the "insane" category.

Where did you read that from that ?
I can't find the lying part or the need for more laws part or the sneaking by part of EEF's post.
I read it as they would need pass a more ridiculous law for the current ridiculous law to have any effect on anything.

Reminds me of the Beatles song:

As eef said, it's a crime to lie. It's perjury isn't it?
But has anyone ever been charged with that particular crime? I never heard of anybody being arrested or convicted. That's why I asked what is the point?
The perjury laws are already on the books but apparently not enforced.

"unless they make it illegal to apply" == make new laws.
