We all heard of the scarcity of toilet paper as the pandemic hit in March. Apparently that was not the only item in demand. In early September, local, state and national headlines highlighted the record-breaking sales in firearms and ammunition. Abundant are suggested reasons for the demand.
Some cite the pandemic for the cause. That makes about as much sense as the hoarding of toilet paper. Circumstances stemming from the lockdowns caused by the virus may be more credible. Others point out the fear for personal safety as the riots have continued to terrorize citizens across the country. |

The 'advanced' training advocated in the article is certainly a good idea. AAMOF, it's a VERY good idea.
But holding the licensed bearing of arms hostage to that level of training would be unacceptable, and probably unconstitutional. |

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) |
