Those who choose to legally carry a weapon have an obligation to their fellow citizens to operate it in a safe manner. The plain truth is that unless
you are specially trained to handle weapons under extreme situations -- think military and law enforcement -- the occasional weekend target shooter is
not going to fair well in an active shooter scenario. There is a difference.
Popping old beer cans off a back fence or hitting the shooting range once a month is not going to give you the experience necessary to go all Dirty
Harry in a public setting with mulitudes of innocent bystanders milling about.
FTR, I'm not anti-gun; actually own one; carry on occasion and am a fairly decent shot.
