When it comes to gun ownership, Aqil Qadir knows exactly what he’s talking about.
He’s a former New York police officer, an NRA-certified firearms instructor and heads his own self-defense training company.
But despite taking pride in being able to take people through Tennessee’s handgun carry permit course, he’s not upset to see the classroom requirement eliminated.
“The handgun permit class was never adequate training anyway,” he says. “And anybody who does this for a living will tell you that.” |

Until the Overton Window on police's perception of blacks and guns shifts in a positive direction, this is an unfortunate but critical necessity.
I applaud their approach, and sincerely hope that it gains continued success. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
