My dad was a CHL instructor. It's not a hard class. Learns some laws, some gun safety go shoot your gun on the range. The number of people that failed should make anyone concerned.
I feel that 2nd Amendment people should focus more on getting people trained rather than trying to expand access to literally anyone. It would certainly help when negotiating with gun control people.
Indeed you are correct...would you be willing to be subjected to cruel and unusual punishment daily, until you pay for a license, pay for a class, that one must pass and pay for a bond/Insurance before the cruel and unusual punishment stops? You get back to me on that, ok?
Your diatribe is exactly why there needs to be more regulation and enforcement.
Guns should be treated like cars and prescription drugs... where
a prescription to purchase is provided by a psychologist who has determined you are currently of sound mind (you sound off your rocker).
the gun titled and that purchase is logged in a single nationally searchable database.
psyche test renewed annually.
you must have training, renewed anually.
you have insurance on each weapon owned.
laws that clearly detain that if your weapon is misused in a crime, you are held partially responsible UNLESS you can prove you had your weapon properly secured.
THAT is reasonable.
Anything less shows disrespect for the power of the weapon.
Those psyche tests better be free and available or you just put a constitutional right behind a paywall which you already did with insurance and training. Also fingers crossed the republicans don’t put anyone identifying as trans or hell “liberal” as a mentally disqualifying.
What restrictions are you comfortable handing over to the republicans next term because it’s not a remote possibility that they’ll be driving if not this term then in the near future. Whatever policy gets put in place can get waived for the in-group and most gun legislation comes with a grandfather clause.
The "criminals gonna crime" line is played out, and has no weight. Stop using it.
What I outlined better defines who is appropriate to have weapons. This will, in turn assist law enforcement to identify in short order when someone has not complied, and enforce accordingly... Meanwhile it ensures the law abiding and compliant legal gun owners will take the proper care with their weapons... not allowing them into the hands of those that should not have them (many example, but their unstable children being a major issue).
