I was talking to a New Castle city cop last night while open carrying. He wanted to know why I didn't have my ccdw permit. I told him, one of the main reasons why is the requirement to publish your info in the paper. He said that he understands my reason, but that he thinks that may be an outdated requirement. He wasn't sure, being that he's a Leo and doesn't have to go through that process to cc. Any thoughts on this? Did Delaware change this requirement, and people don't know about it?
The requirement is still in the statute and still being enforced.
It's outdated in the sense that it's insane to put a requirement like that on people in the era of atomization and Google, even if it maybe kinda sorta arguably if you squint made sense when it was enacted in 1911.
