[QUOTE="ronny, post: 2859578, member: 8853"] No, you're not. However, this has gone from the fact that I think some sort of rudimentary training should be developed for people wanting to carry weapons to charges that I want to remove the freedoms we all have. Yet, this freedom we're talking about is one we don't even have yet. We are required to take a training course. Yes, it sucks, but that's partly our fault. We constantly ***** about how crappy it is, but that accomplishes nothing. If anyone thinks we currently have this freedom, just walk down to the local police station with a gun on your hip without a license. We require licenses for the rights to do a lot of things much more mundane than carrying a deadly weapon. There have been countless threads on this site, and others, with members ranting about "novices", by other, not so nice names, sticking their fingers in front of the muzzle, leaving a loaded weapon where a child could reach it, pointing a firearm south on a north-reaching range, etc. How many of those instances might have come to a different conclusion with a little basic training? You'd think common sense and freedom could find a way to live together. The funny thing is, 10 years ago we would all have been cheering in the streets to hear that the House had passed the law we're talking about, even with a mandatory training requirement. [/QUOTE]
