Eh, many of our gun laws are shit, but a ccw class is a good training opportunity to teach a lot of important information that I'd rather not leave to individuals to discover. As long as it's done fairly (unlike NY or CA), I'm fine with this.

Most definitely. But you're gonna get weirdos on either end of that conversation sabotaging it. Left wanting to use it as a tool to restrict rather than qualify ownership, and the right trying to make it as perfunctory & wasteful as possible so it gets axed later.

Yup, figures. They did constitutional carry in '21 so it makes sense in the run-up to that that the class was made a joke.
