Re: CHL requirements
Maybe we should make it so that all the bad guys that want to carry guns need to pay a fee and take a test also. I think we could get rich off of that.

Re: CHL requirements
I disagree. It doesn't take long to learn how to shoot a gun. It's not rocket science. I can teach someone everything they need to know in an hour or probably less. Now, they won't be good or proficient but they will know the 4 rules of handgun safety and proper sight alignment, breathing, squeeze the trigger etc.. 99% of the people you are saying can't shoot can be taught how to shoot and safety in about an hour. Then they need to practice but I practice weekly and I'm a decent shot. So, to say they shouldn't be able to carry a gun just because they can't shoot is not a valid statement.jtran987 wrote:im just saying there are too many people who have a chl who dont deserve one and regardless of age, regardless of race, gender whatever i believe you need to know how to shoot if you are to carry a gun. regardless people who cant shoot cant shoot, pretty simple, so they need to learn how to shoot and learn with their handicaps if they have some, before they carry.
i still think that we should raise prices because people still take them with no knowledge or experience just because they can. raising the price by like 100 is nothing to most of us who understand the need. but to those who dont and just think it will be fun, it will keep those people away.
yall can scream 2A all you want and im all for it, i just need to toss a bit of common sense in there, if you dont mind all the people who have never shot before in their lives, and can still pass the proficiency test, carrying a gun thats your call, if it were up to me thered be none of that, you either can or cannot shoot
Most altercations happen up close and personal. You don't need to hit a bullseye at 20 yards for that. Just point at your attacker and pull the trigger until they stop.
