Rules to better ensure gun safety do not threaten the Second Amendment. Michigan has reasonable regulations in place to make sure those who are awarded concealed carry permits have a passing understanding of how to handle a handgun, and a familiarity with the state’s firearms laws.
Those rules should remain in place.
Republicans in the state Legislature want to scrap the training requirement of the CCW law, allowing those who want to carry a concealed weapon to do so without demonstrating a competency in the safe workings of a pistol or revolver.
That would be little different than dumping the test required before a driver’s license is issued. Both work to protect the operator and the public. |

| There should be NO permit...Driving a car is NOT a right enumerated in the constitution! Owning a firearm, and carrying it, is a right enumerated in the constitution!!!! |

No. Is there a "safety course" for voting?
No? Then there can't be one for bearing arms. |

| Maybe we should go back to testing competency before we let people vote too. They wouldn't like that much - half the country can't name their own representatives ! |

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
