I Was Taught How To Use A Gun

I've fired lots of different types of guns. It's a huge responsibility to even handle a gun let along own one. Then there's the concept of carrying it around as a concealed carry which makes me feel like I'd need a hundred times more practice and safety training to walk around safely with a handgun at my hip.

I just took a concealed carry class for 16 hours and it covered the basics. The laws, safety, proper draw to shooting motions, morality of when to shoot, and accuracy. It was the basics of the basics.

Again I've shot a lot of different guns from a potato gun to an Ak 47. I feel like the generally population of people in America haven't so much as held a gun let along learned gun safety. It makes me wonder how people can be so judgemental towards guns when they have never took the time to handle them. (you can go to classes to learn how to shoot or just go to a local shooting range and pay for their ammo and borrow guns potentially). I would highly recommend it. Just like I wouldn't judge the sjw or lgbt people without walking side by side with them, I did and most of them are nice but there are a few bad apples that make them all look rotten.

When guns are outlawed, only the outlaws will have guns. Being a gun owner is not a privilege, its a responsibility.
You were raised well.
Today's violence isn't a gun problem, it's a lack of respect problem..

@Quimliqer totally agree. When a law is passed if I never did anything wrong but then when I wake up in the morning I'm a criminal... then something just isn't right.
