Training is great, yet there are considerations of mandating such. Why can't the permit providers give a big discount for your license to carry, when you show proof of a credible training course? |

I like the idea of a permit discount if you get training, but I have another question, what business is it of the Catholic Church to actively campaign against a particular piece of legislation? They can preach in their churches and I have no problem with them laying out church teaching but you can expand just war theory to actually support the idea of self defense. I think they were wrong to come out in support of not overriding the Governors veto. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
