No one would have to push for anything at all had we all agreed decades ago to not let violent criminals roam free.

PO1 H Gene Lawrence That faction seriously doesn't care if you're cool because you hate President Trump or if you're uncool because you're conservative. If you're unlucky enough to be in a position where they think they can use you, they will. I really don't understand the sentiment whereby we can't ruin a juvenile's life after he commits a couple of violent crimes (by sending him to prison until he's too old to do it again). Violent crime knows no boundaries. We would ALL benefit from a revamp of the justice system. Being cool isn't enough. Now you'd better have the ability to generate combat power...because they sure can. If the numbers of free criminals were reduced to the point where the only ones left were the ones who hadn't actually done anything yet I might rethink whether I NEED to be armed. Right now its a crapshoot and having common sense, I tend to err on the side of, well, conservatism, lol.

While I generally support permitless carry, I also support some kind of training requirement before a person starts carrying. I have seen the results of untrained shooters in our range, and if a person can't even avoid destroying our target frames and trolleys, they shouldn't be carrying a gun in public. I don't know how we can balance permitless carry with a training requirement.

SPC Casey Ashfield in addition that can require training be prohibitively expensive. That way they can save face and say "see we'll let you carry" but the fine print is most people wouldn't be able to afford the few trainers certified by the state. We would need a balance between training and not being infringed.

SGT James Murphy I don't know, but dad's family was from central Illinois, and they had a bunch of kids. Dad was one of twelve kids, and 2nd of grandpa's second family. I don't know anything about his first tribe, except that there were a bunch of them.
