Good Saturday morning to you. Busy? No, it's Saturday. Okay, let's have a conversation.

2. I'm not in favor of required training.

Training isn't the problem. So...the shooter will be BETTER at killing the masses?

But there's a difference between owning a gun and driving a car. Guns are for protection sometimes...and may never be used. Guns are for hobbies...gun collecting, hunting, skeet shooting. They are not used out on the streets legally, and are not used daily, weekly, and for most, not even monthly.

Driving a car is something that people of all ages do out on the streets on a daily basis. Driving around a lethal weapon. The govt also wants to know who you are so that they can track you down if you are involved in an accident (driver's license). It's also more complicated to drive, given all the street signs, rules of the road, parking skills, than to shoot a gun. Shooting a gun properly is actually fairly easy. the last time I went to a shooting range, which was many years ago, I was surprised that I was pretty good. I hit the paper man figure wherever I intended to. That was probably from my years of playing foosball and tennis! Safety training would be helpful, but then I would forget it, since I haven't shot my gun in many years.
