Under Louisiana law, which of the following disqualifies you from obtaining a concealed carry permit?

  1. A conviction for a misdemeanor crime of violence within the last 10 years

  2. A conviction for a non-violent felony

  3. Having a restraining order against you for a neighbor dispute

  4. A conviction for a DUI within the last 5 years

The correct answer is: A conviction for a misdemeanor crime of violence within the last 10 years

A conviction for a misdemeanor crime of violence within the last 10 years will disqualify you from obtaining a concealed carry permit in Louisiana. This is because the state considers individuals with a history of violent behavior to be a potential threat to public safety. On the other hand, a conviction for a non-violent felony or a DUI within the last 5 years would not automatically disqualify you from obtaining a concealed carry permit. However, these factors could still be taken into consideration during the application process. Having a restraining order against you for a neighbor dispute would also not disqualify you, as it does not necessarily indicate a history of violent behavior.
