Carrying a weapon with no training? I know most people would have no problem with that because they’ve been firing guns since they were kids but I can see the leftists making a fuss over that and their claims might be well founded if a bad accident like the 9 yr old with the UZI which was just asking for it. Very stupid idea. Instead of building her confidence he scarred her for life. Common sense has to ocme into the equation. I think they should at least be required to take a firearms proficiency test or course with exceptions for former soldiers and LEOs...IMO of course

What an exceptionally ill informed statement. The new law isn’t Obamacare. The law allows people to make a choice. it doesn’t mandate every stupid person to go and spend their hard earned dollars on guns and ammunition. Guns and ammo are not inconsequential in cost or commitment. It’s not like buying a candy bar. You like the left are fussing over control not firearms.
Bad accidents include cars, bathtubs, household chemicals, swing sets, corded blinds, swimming pools and organized sports. All of which kill far more people annually than firearms, but only those indoctrinated by leftards focus on firearms

The part where you noted that many have been around guns their whole life is good enough to let the rational folks know that most of the "Non-trained" folks have had lifelong training.

While I think good training is essential to proper gun control/safety, the Constitution doesn't require training for any of our Rights - else it would have had to establish a set of guidance to guarantee the training too.

Freedom requires diligence - no training necessary.....
