Obviously, if anyone could carry with no requirement to prove any proficiency, there would be more people carrying who are not familiar with firearms. Putting it that way, I can avoid the agurment over the definition of competence.frankie_the_yankee wrote:So what do the people who favor VT / AK style carry (i.e. no CHL required, OC and CC OK, etc.) think of the above? With no license or proficiency requirement, do you think there would be more incompetent people carrying guns in public, or fewer?
It would be a thing, neither good or bad. I tend to think it would be better for society to allow people to carry and over time more people would take responsibility for themselves, but I cannot prove it. And for the direct effect of more people who do not know their own weapons carrying, I don't see it as particularly good or bad.Would this be a good thing or a bad thing?
