Whether it is significant or not on an absolute scale, it is definitely MUCH more significant now with morons getting LTC with just an online questionnaire that my 6-y/o can pass. Those LTC instructors here know what I'm talking about.

So the purpose of the LTC class is to teach gun safety? That must be a new curriculum. Interesting that we haven't had more accidental rifle shootings in the 184 years permitless rifle carry has been legal in Texas. I presume you're not a fan of permitless handgun carry...as in say, Oklahoma?

I've occasionally thought of wearing body armor, it would be a lot more effective at protecting you than say a dirty cotton muzzle or bandanna worn as a mask. In other words, not very (effective at protecting you).
