Plaintiff appeals from rejection of his application for concealed-carry license under Concealed Carry Act. The Concealed Carry Licensing Review Board did not err in considering rap sheet or police reports, as the Act contemplates Board relying on such evidence. Act's standard for denying a license, based on applicant posing a danger to himself or others or a threat to public safety, is consistent with second amendment and is not unconstitutionally vague.(HOWSE and BURKE, concurring.)
