After Florida loophole closed for concealed weapons, Rep. Senator tries to open new loophole

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20130621_Pa__lawmaker_proposes_bill_to_skirt_Phila__gun-permit_process.html

Philadelphia is more careful in issuing concealed weapons permits than many other PA. counties. For example, they may refuse to issue a permit for someone who has multiple arrests but no convictions. When someone was refused a Phila. permit in the past, they did a mail order permit from Florida, but AG Kane closed that loophole.

Now, a Repub. Senator from central PA. is proposing to allow Phila. residents to go to any neighboring PA. county to get their permit.
