The test was basically open book. I'm a gun right supporter but some people don't need to carry. No extra classes, no practice. I caught a lady filling her Glock mag backwards. I quit going to the range and found a good ol boy outside range.

They may be able to pass the written and shooting part, but no one ever gives a personality test for them.

I've had my CCP for about 20 years now... Although I don't carry everyday, there are definitely people that shouldn't carry under any circumstances, esp legally

Typical BS thinking: "Let's not allow anyone to carry weapons on armed forces bases, government buildings, schools and theaters so everyone will be safe."

Criminals don't follow the law because they're criminals and find soft, easy targets on armed forces bases, schools and theaters. 

I work in an unsecured government building and is a "weapons free zone".  Occasionally we have angry members of the public in the building.  I can easily see a sickening body count happening before a deputy arrives. I'm glad you're safe Travis.

It would probably be much safer if everyone had to carry... That way all the bad guys would know that there's always sane people around that would drop their crazy asses

@travisstrick‌ Glad to hear your ok bud. It was crazy I was at a bar consuming beverages and the wife called me and told me what happened and then asked "isn't that where your Egg buddy is?" 

 I knew I could get on the forum and see your status. Good to hear your alright. 

 Side note what happened to the lead singer of Gwar?

I'm with you Tuttle. Apparently drugs. RIP Oderus Urungus

The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun!

Me too, especially since they were somewhat local. He interviewed on Elliott in the morning after Flattus Maximus died. Cool guy when you got to learn about the band's background.Just a bun of college buddies.

@Eggcelsior‌ @travisstrick‌ didn't realize Oderus Urungus was only 43 billion years old. So young and such a waste.

Saw them at the Cradle in the eighties. They were banned from chapel hill for ten years after the show. Still have the bloody shirt somewhere. Glad you're ok Travis.

I still am amazed that people can walk around carrying firearms, most not trained but soldiers can't on base.

Thank Bill Clinton for that....

Here are some gifs to illustrate how much that failed, as described by nola:

Smacking my head...

Just another sad example of how our both governments fail to support returning veterans.  Sending boys and girls into harm's way and offering the square root of sfa when it comes to post traumatic stress disorder upon return is shameful.  I am proud to have a son serving with the Canadian Special Ops regiment and fortunate that he is still of sound mind and pray every day that is a constant in his life.
