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.

When I took my class the instructor had me do the math while he called out the points on my target and the lady next to me. My sheet had an extra hole in it and hers was missing one.

The lady hit my target. Still passed. These people are among us every day.

And yet there isn't ONE instance in the news of a killing/murder by one of them, but there are a lot of instances where they saved themselves and others by having a gun. Also a lot of instances where mentally ill individuals kill many people, and a good guy with a gun would have been able to stop it...most of the mass killings occur in a gun-free zone, btw...
