My reply is for all who were against CC because now you don't have to go through the class and be trained to carry. A family member and his wife wanted a carry license a few years ago. They went to an instructor to get "trained" at his home. He handed them two 22 caliber pistols and 50 rounds ammo each, told them to go around back and fire the rounds into a dirt mound while he went and filled out their paperwork. They paid their money to him for training and then paid Oklahoma for their license and they were legally approved to carry. All that these Conceal carry laws are for and this goes for pretty much every law, is just a way to generate revenue to keep people employed by the government.

You are responsible for seeking the training you need to handle a firearm safely. Criminals or people with evil intentions will carry whether trained to carry safely or not.
