[QUOTE="ProBusiness, post: 2772532, member: 6145"] After teaching the Ok Handgun License class for several years it has been an eye opener. the position I take many say is financially motivated but there is not that much money in teaching this class and my views are based on experience. I would say over 85% of people attending the class have no idea on how to handle a gun or be safe with a handgun or know anything about what the law says regarding your rights and obligations when using a gun to protect youself. long story cut short, i believe a 6-8 course to learn 1) when you can legally shoot a bad guy verses shooting or pointing a gun at someone just because you want to 2) how to handle a handgun safely and many other very basic requirement that MOST students do not have is a small price to pay for a safe society. For example: per a converation last week with a woman told me she had to put a man in his place. during a road rage incident, she pulled over with her husband in the passanger seat, and then the second party pulled over and began yelling curse words at her. well, she asked her husband for the .40 cal in the door pocket of the passanger seat and pointed the gun at the guy because he was cursing at her (he was in his car yelling at her). I told her that she could not point a gun at someone because they are yelling at you and that she just committed a felony, she said well 'he was cursing at her and she had to shut him up'. i told her that she could not shoot someone because they are yelling at you vs. attacking her, and she basically said she had her rights. uninformed and lucky a tradegy was avoided. that would be a tradetgy if either one of them lost their lives over yelling. most people taking the course are very negligent in regards to safety with a gun. a little training can go a long way. yes we have a right to consitutional carry but a little training cannot hurt. if the training is not required by the state it will not happen. how would you feel if a loved one was killed by a person/gun if 7 hours of training could of prevented that tradegy?
