WFB's Stephen Gutowski Discusses His Rejection for a DC Concealed Carry Permit on Kennedy

February 25, 2015

The Washington Free Beacon’s Stephen Gutowski appeared on Fox Business Network’s Kennedy to discuss his experience trying to obtain a concealed weapons permit in Washington DC.

Gutowski filled out an application, paid $110, got his fingerprints taken by the police, and was still denied his Second Amendment right to bear arms. According to the city, Gutowski did not provide enough reason for the "need" of a weapon for self-defense, even though he has been threatened many times before.

"You never know what's going to happen–the world is an unpredictable place, and I want to be prepared," Gutowski said.

Gutowski said that there is a good chance that the city’s current system could be deemed unconstitutional yet again.

"As of today, they’ve approved 16 permits out of a city of 600,000," Gutowski said.
