People should take the responsibility to train on their own, it should not be a requirement. I think MOST people understand how dangerous anything can be if used improperly. Should we make buying batteries illegal without proper training on them too? How about steak knives? Anything with an electrical outlet. There are dangers to everything. I would say most people who carry a gun daily do a lot of training and practice with that firearm. You are worried about ppl carrying guns, how about the people out there driving cars. Car accidents kill more people than anything in this country. You take one stupid little test and then you can drive anywhere as you please. How about push for higher levels of training for driving and actually save some lives? Have you ever taken a "qualifications" test in other states required for your gun license? It's a joke. It is just a way for the state to make some more revenue. If we enact a law saying you need training, who gets to say how much? Who teaches these classes? How much will it cost? All of these things are the problems with the so called training requirement. I do not think i should have to take a class to be able to defend myself and my family. And just because it hasnt happened to you yet, doesnt mean it wont. I honestly hope it wont happen, but it happens to ordinary citizens like me and you everyday. Literally Everyday. I havent had cancer and ive been alive 22 years; maybe i should call the cancer research folks and tell them what they are doing is pointless since it hasnt happened to me....
