re: #23 Rightwingconspirator

I see, so a POST certified policeman by your measure is not qualified to defend himself at home with his service gun.

We’ve been over this. Please stop repeating it as though it’s new, and explain what your actual problem with this is. The POST certifed may or may not be qualified. If he passes the test, he’s qualified. If 99% of POST certified people pass the test we can dispense with the test for POST certified people.

What is the problem with that?

You lost me there. I don’t agree. The level of training you demand is excessive for a minimum starting requirement under the law.

This is me in complete disagreement

Why, though? If, as you say, POST training is sufficient then they’ll pass the test with no problem. So why are you freaking out about it?

Also, can you explain why you think someone doing target shooting should be able to keep their gun at home without being trained for its use in home defense? Do you want that person legally barred from using it in self-defense at home?
