Yesterday, I had an applicant for an LTC-A, who thought it would be in his best interest to misrepresent his criminal history. I always make it a point to explain beforehand, that you must disclose ANY incident in which you appeared in court as a defendant. I also explain that failure to disclose this information can result in civil fines, criminal charges, AND a license denial. After hearing all of this, the individual, who had a couple of very minor charges ( guilty findings) that would not have disqualified him at all, decided to lie to me, explaining very explicitly that he has NEVER set foot in a courtroom. It took about 10 seconds for me to find these charges, as well as his juvenile record. Why would you do this?? Be honest people. Tell your licensing official the truth. If you're not sure of exact dates, hey....that's ok. But please, don't put me in a position where I must consider denying someone an LTC. I don't like it. I'm a strong supporter of 2A, and contrary to common belief, some of us WANT you to own guns.
