Attention Indiana XD owners

[trelane]

I recently received my Indiana lifetime carry license only to do a bit of investigating, and find out that this license is next to useless. I'm considering starting a blog listing Indiana carry laws, and utilizing the google map technology to list places we cant carry even if we have a permit (Schools and government buildings will be covered elsewhere due to the number).

I'm planning on breaking this up by county, and including all the 92 counties. I also intend to contact business owners and including the results of a short hard hitting questionnaire (or their refusal to take the questionnaire, or explain their actions), yet to be created, for those who refuse to allow guns (defenseless victim zones). The secondary goal of course is to protect permit holders who might otherwise stumble into such a facility unwittingly and lose, or have to fight for their permit.

I also intend to cover stories of the mass homicides which have become all too prevalent. I will contact the facilities where they occur to determine their policies on carrying guns at those facilities, and what their policies were before the attacks if they did not. The goal here is to get them to consider that their patrons are completely defenseless, and advocate that their policies towards the carrying of weapons by those legally allowed to do so be changed. I will also contact local governments and law enforcement to determine if the perpetrator had been issued a license by the state, and if the license was indeed valid.

I intend to run this site in a not-for-profit manner, utilizing full disclosure, and open books. We will collect donations from those interested, and if the group passes the public support test we will incorporate as a 501(c)3 charitable entity. I would use Google Ads to cover the costs (website developer, bandwidth, hardware, and possibly an ask a lawyer section for Indiana Gun Law questions), and any surplus profit after taxes would go towards another charitable effort as determined by the volunteers. (NRA-ILA, Indiana NRA, local Indiana political candidates that support protection of our Second Amendment, and Indiana Constitutional Rights).

If the following is large enough I might consider expanding past the state of Indiana, but I'd need a huge amount of volunteer time for this to work.
