I just don't get what people have against Constitutional Carry.

And some people don't get what people have against abortion.
Nothing will please every person.... Except maybe ice cream.

I just don't get what people have against Constitutional Carry.

There are two big arguments I’ve read and heard on the TV.

1. “I don’t want untrained people carrying guns”. When I went through the class, there was no training. The instructor read the SDA manual word for word. The test was on firearms safety, not the contents of the book and the test was reviewed before it was given. Any “what if” questions got the reply “you need to speak with an attorney”. The actual firing portion of the class was fifty rounds from three and seven yards on a full size silhouette target. No minimum score required.

2. “I don’t want people carrying guns without a background check”. As we all know, NICs fulfills federal requirements for possession/owning firearms.

Unless you're lactose intolerant.

I've heard those arguments before as well.

"I don't want untrained people carrying guns" - what about gang bangers and other criminals? People aren't concerned about them carrying guns illegally.

"I don't want people carrying guns without a background check" - They don't want Bobby Sue to carry to protect herself and her family. She's not a felon and doesn't need a background check because she's never committed a crime and is a US citizen.

Most law abiding citizens won't carry a gun without some kind of training. Most.

See... even ice cream can't make the world agree.

While I get what your saying, it is no doubt a pretty weak argument. I own many guns, of which I have only filled out form 4473 twice in my life and I no longer own those 2 guns.

Same way with lots of gun owners, but that’s the argument they’re trying to fight it with.

Then you probably won't be able to carry.
Each time they talk about this law they are trying to pass, they state you must pass a background check first.
Don't know how they are going to work that exactly though.

In my case, I like ice cream... it doesn't like me, though. There's always Lactaid pills or frozen yogurt.

Or sherbet. I like lime best.
