I agree with you Bob (OHIO). But I myself would like to see every concealed carry state, or open carry state make it mandatory for all carriers to attend a weapons class. I have a permit here in Michigan and when I went thru the class there was a ton of shoot or no shoot scenarios that I did not know. And by not knowing I would have shot when by law I shouldn't, and not shot when by law I could and might have spent some jail time because of this. I thought I knew everything because I am a retired Green Beret Master Sergeant and I had (prior to 1990 when I retired) carried concealed weapons overseas. I believe there should be something that we could read also that would explain any difference in Michigan laws and the laws of other states re-guarding concealed carry. I sure would hate to go to another state where it is legal for me to carry, and do something wrong. But the final line is I would rather have the good people around me possibly carrying and making the criminal think, than none of us having protection against an armed criminal. That to me would be the ultimate deterrent, and hopefully would make most criminals go out and work for a living.
