I was pilloried by a NRA activist who writes under the name Sebastian on his blog a while back, for asserting that we should require eye testing for gun ownership and gun permits, the same way we do for driving. His girlfriend is fairly severely visually impaired, lacking any effective peripheral vision as I understand it.
Jimmy Kimmel expresses very well WHY we should require, for common sense safety reasons, adequate physical and mental ability to use firearms SAFELY, which includes adequate visual capacity.
That Iowa or any person representing the blind community would not understand the profound danger blind people present with open or concealed carry, is nothing less than bizarre.
Watch.
