Please name a Country or City where all people are “civilized” as you put it? I’ll take NOWHERE for a Thousand, Alex. What an ignorant comment.

You really either don’t know or forgot that a felon in possession of a firearm, is illegal. So, your problem is solved.

Ourchasing a firearm from the stor does not mean its registered. COMPLETLY FALSE

The only firearms in La that are registered are NFA items like suppressors and machine guns


I'm not sure what I was thinking about when I was arguing with that weirdo. For some reason, I was thinking a new purchase was being registered in some form or fashion. Glad I saw your post.

I don't know how old you are, but the fact that you almost fell for the original spiel is disconcerting. Yet you still use the term "registering." I presume you're in LA, "registering" a firearm is not a thing, nor is it in most of the country.

I will reiterate my objection to over-reliance on Constitutional carry. If you don't leave your county but once a year, no worries. Having Constitutional carry rights in your home states doesn't necessarily mean you have any carry rights if you hit another gun friendly state. Different LEO orgs and their experience all have an impact as to how your interaction goes, but why risk it?

Trash like you is the reason racism really exists.

At no point today did I even put on a pair of shoes.

I wish there were more armed citizens. And I don't give a flying frick what color they are.

As a former 0311 combat Marine, when the shite hits the fan in say a grocery store shooter situation, my preference would to be surrounded by similarly experienced personnel. Won't ever happen like that, but Spray and Pray doesn't work, that's how you get the wrong civilian killed. I'm concerned that scenario will occur.


Had to upvote you when you said you were a marine. Have marines in my family that fought in 2nd battle of Fallujah. Semper Fi brother.

Now, that being said, I agree that gun safety courses are beneficial, but I don’t think they should be mandatory in order to obtain a firearm. It should be something that most people do on their own time whenever they want to. It shouldn’t interfere with their ability to purchase a firearm

This is just unfounded fear if you think logically.

How many grocery store shootings are there? How many of those are in a city you live in? Now how many grocery stores are in that city? Now what are the chances that you would be at that grocery store, that day, at that time? The chances are close to 0.

Now that’s not to say people shouldn’t conceal carry, but the chances of something “major” happing like a shooting at a grocery store or other business, and you being there, is almost non existent.

I can guarantee you my 13 yr old daughter has better gun skills than some of the people in these classes. I’m not saying I don’t want people to CCW but the classes are useless and a money grab. If they kept data on how many have not been certified (they don’t) I bet it’s close to 0%. My last instructor bragged about getting a legally blind man certified.


So grandma can't have a gun in the Katrina aftermath?

I understand your sentiment, but anyone, including half blind, or fully blind folks, has the right to defend themselves. My old arse dead grandman has the right to shoot a MFer even if she can't get down the stairs by herself.

You understand that all of the qualifications on who was "qualified" to own a firearm, started with trying to keep blacks and undesirables (defined differently depending on the locale) from having guns, right?

Where were all the mass shootings in 1911?

There are hundreds of hours of cops in high stress situations not reacting properly, but it doesn't matter. You saw two female cops mag dump approx 4 mags into one black woman in her friend's house, with no warrant, and the woman lived?

Qualified. LOL. So skilled.

Training is the equivalent of a poll tax. It keeps people, especially poor, from getting a permit. Texas used to have an 8 hour training requirement. When is a single mom going to pull that off when she has to take her kid to soccer?

But you don't care, you want to be the gate keeper. None of you special people can respond in a situation like someone from the 3rd ID would. Are they good enough? Oh, but they're not as good as the 82nd. And they're not as good as SEALs. Oh, but they're not as good as DEVGRU or Delta.

You missed my point. I’m for constitutional carry. People saying you need to go through some sort of training in order to have it. The training that a license carrier gets is a joke.

Fair statement, I'm hardcore on pointing out to people how it may not work out well for them in other states. It's leftover trauma from living in Atlanta, where you will get dropped constantly if you made the mistake of licensed open carry, with no probable cause.

The point is that government continues to turn the screws on what is "good enough." It'll only be safe if you take 8 hours. Or 16 hours. Maybe shoot expert. They will always ratchet it tighter. Doesn't matter if you're old, disabled, a legal immigrant, etc.

You don't need training to carry. If you can load, and reload, and pull the trigger, you're good. Do you need training to know that you shouldn't shoot a 12 year old stealing a bike from the sidewalk? When I fear from my life at 200+ lbs, versus what a 90 pound grandma feels are different. Ma'am, drop drop the hammer, and I'll buy you replacement rounds. Does she need to put 8/15 in the 10 ring? 5/10? What's good enough? You realize how few women in the Army could properly pull the charging handle on an M-16 in basic training right? When is Grandma going to be able to keep the pistol on her fridge, if E-2s can load a rifle?

"Engrish class."

Tell me you weren't stationed in Japan.

2nd Amendment, simple as that. The people of Louisiana shouldn’t have to pay a tax to the sheriffs association just to conceal carry. I don’t want to hear about public safety, in Louisiana it’s about money and control from a group of sheriffs that have way to much power.

Not that it matters, but do we have any evidence that this is a threat to safety anyway? That sounds like an argument you'd see on some suburban mom Facebook dribble

Any thought that doesn't support The Message is a threat to public safety. Just ask your average liberal white woman on NextDoor.

It's amazing to me that people who aren't totally anti-gun are against this.
