Reasonable restrictions. I remember when PA passed hidden carry permits I went to the first issuing session and the room was crowded with probably three dozen chairs, all taken. They announced the first step would be fingerprinting, and half got up and walked out. It's their game, their rules, if you don't like it don't play. I felt the CC permit was worth it, but obviously many don't.

To clarify; the advantage of having a concealed carry permit is if I want to take a handgun to a friend's house, in order to take it in the car(legally), it must be unloaded, in the trunk, in a locked container, with the bullets in a separate container. Plus you still need a reason for having it in the car. There's a dozen acceptable reasons, but 'just because' isn't one of them.

With a CC permit, unload it and throw it in the glove compartment, or on the floor. Personally I don't use the CC permit to carry a gun all the time, it's just a convenience when I want to take one somewhere and happen to get stopped. Otherwise I'd have to drive slow.
