To get a permit in Ohio is wholly impossible, unless you word for the police or the FBI. In Florida, same story. In California, they make an exception for you if you have tons of money, are an armed body guard, or a celebrity. To get this permit is very very expensive and takes a very long time to take the classes.

Texas is a rare example of allowing this sort of stuff.

lol, Florida difficult to get a permit in, thats a good one. Florida is one of the friendliest states to get a permit in. You have to pass a background check, get finger printed and pass a basic skills course. In fact they have one of the best non-resident permits in the US too. It's valid in over two dozen states. Florida's laws when it comes to protecting yourself, your family or friends are some of the "best" when it comes to your ability to protect yourself in a situation like the one in this thread. There are a number of states that have similar laws.

Check your facts on Ohio too, it's a Right to Carry, Shall issue state.

Permits are only for concealed carry in most states, and most states don't require a permit to purchase a pistol. Federal law requires everyone to have one of those instant background checks done. That just checks that you don't have any felonies on file and it might check if theres any record of you being institutionalized for mental health reasons.

WI and IL deny rights to concealed carry (and possibly more, I didn't dig), CA, IA, NY, MA, NJ, DE and MD restrict the right to concealed carry, but you can get a permit. AK and VT don't even require a permit to carry in any way, you just need to pass the federal requirements to purchase a pistol. The rest are right to carry, shall issue states.
