I often wonder why people who believe we need tougher requirements for CHL classes are not fighting to pass legislation that would require training prior to purchasing a firearm. After all these same untrained people have guns in their homes and their cars without any training requirements. I often wonder why they only became such a danger to themselves and society when they decided to get a CHL but weren't before that.
Just to be clear, I don't support any additional training requirements.
California has such a law for purchasing a handgun. I don't think we want to follow their lead.
Oh, I agree 100%, I was just wondering how someone could support one but not the other.
