re: #151 Unshaken Defiance

What if we had the right to fly? But keep the FAA training etc.
New pilot guy-Little plane, no commercial flights.
Not so new-Fly a twin for hire if you can pass all the tests etc.
Master class-Fly the concorde. In the clouds.

New shooter-Smaller lower capacity guns allowed.
Not so new-Bigger better gun for bigger sport or hunt.
Master class-Get the biggest baddest permitted under law

Other than the fact that guns freakin’ kill, we already have something like that: Ham radio. You can’t use it without a license, and while I have my technicians license, I’m only allowed to use low power radios. And, guess what? I’m registered with the government. If you go digging hard enough, and knew either my call sign or my name, you can go find out where I live.
