Do you think that would have had an impact on Omar Mateen?

I think that it is a good idea but, a few things stand in the way. Who is going to teach these classes? Will the instructors be given immunity from civil litigation if one of their students fouls up and someone is harmed? Will completion of this class be a requirement for the purchase of a firearm? Is this just weapons safety or will it discuss rules of engagement?

How are free safety courses going to stop someone like Mateen and any of the other recent mass shooters? For the record no one is talking about BANNING guns, but some do want to put in place a BACKGROUND check, the kind that would keep someone on an FBI terrorist watchlist from going out and still being able to buy AR15's. Background checks does not equal a gun ban.

Fantastic! unfortunately, I got "Search returns no records." but this could be expanded with some help from the people who want more safety and less death. (or is that not what all this is really about?)
