Training is what we need to promote - and broader training than just weapons usage and safety.

I don’t have a firm enough position on gun control to want it costing us money right now, but that mainly opens me up to accepting whatever position is most politically expedient. I'll take bad gun control laws over a PP government every time, and I think you might have a sheltered view on what position is most popular.

Maybe. I'm on Vancouver Island where shooting is very ingrained in the culture. Our guns are tools more than weapons.

I think majority of city people have a sheltered view of guns and that's why this garbage ass policy ever even seen the light of day. The libs who made the policy obviously have zero understanding of the "gun problem". This policy has seemingly no effect on gun violence.
