Sorry if this is the wrong place. It didn't seem to fit exactly in anywhere, unless I missed a section.\ Anyway, filling out the FID papers again and had a few questions. 1) Does a cousin's wife count as a relative? Or is it just direct blood relatives that cannot be used? 2) Where it asks for employer, what if I have more than on employer? Won't that turn up in a background check anyway?

Spoke with an attorney today and he said he's never heard of a case of a denial being rescinded but that I could hire him to assist in the reapplication process that would likely require an appeal. Anyone have any experience with this? Is discussing the issue in person with the chief of police still a viable idea?

Exactly how I am taking it. Its in the past and I can understand why they did it. Is that truly a giant hurtle past the one time? I would of thought if I got it this time it wouldn't be as big a deal if I wanted additional pistol permits. And am I correct in the assumption I should only need to pay application fees this time?

Ha no. With my gun pointed at the ground in all but 1 where it was pointed in a safe direction.

My God father and a member of the USAF who I played airsoft with. Both gun owners who gave no allusions to the fact I might be someone who shouldn't own guns. All the photos where in the field or posing. None with me being a dick and pointing guns at people or in any way acting like a tool. I had my uncle talk to some cops in the town he knows and the word was that because the Chief didn't personally know me outside of what they read on the internet, I had to be denied based on said MySpace. It didn't contain anything hate filled or stuff like that. Even my "About Me" section was nothing out of the ordinary. The page title "I kill things with grenades" could of been cause for alarm I suppose. But with that alone I don't see how it could of been taken as anything but what it was, a video game reference.

Thanks for the advice so far. Another question. I shouldn't need to pay for finger printing again since I got it done last time right? Just the application and pistol permit fees?

Logan Township. I am currently 22. No negative history with the town and even with my traffic tickets, all of them are from a town over. If there was other reasons he did not make them known. When I was called down to the station they had a folder with various print outs from said MySpace opened up on it.

Sorry if this is the wrong section wasn't sure where to put it. Anyway. I am looking to apply for my FID again. The first time I was denied based upon a possible risk to public safety. Reason being that I had some photos of me playing airsoft on my MySpace. Not sure why I even still had one knowing all the trouble they cause for people just looking for jobs. Anyway based upon that I was denied an FID. Chief of Police also didn't seem too hot on the fact my references weren't in town. I planned to appeal it because I have no criminal record and was in a "Tech school" for Law Enforcement. Long story short. I didn't make it to the appeal. Now this was more then 3 years ago. To date I still have no criminal history except for a few traffic tickets and am in college for criminal justice. I am pretty sure the wait time to apply again is long up and that I will need to check that I have been denied but I am worried I will be denied again based solely on the reasons from 3 years ago. I very much like to get past the dumb mistake because this will no doubt also pose a hurtle to me when looking to a law enforcement job. So does anyone have any advice or personal experiences in similar situations? And if it matters I live in Logan Township.

I'm 22 and had some questions about FIDs and I figured this would be the best place to find out since Google failed me.
