They examine your past life quite closely and one must have a very clean record to pass final muster . Each person applying for a permit is interviewed by an officer assigned by the local chief to handle the process.Massachusetts is a democratically controlled state with too many liberals making the laws. So a balance was created to not completely block access to firearms, because most of the western part of the state is still very rural and even some liberals enjoy hunting.</blockquote>
