[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in DC and have no interest in owning a gun. But I hate that our gun laws mean that every carjacker absolutely knows I don’t have a gun and am a sitting duck.[/quote]

I don’t.

They would just shoot you first. Stupid idea.[/quote]

They already have guns and know that law abiding citizens do not. It’s why there are so many carjackings. If taxpayers could legally carry, carjackers would think twice, which would protect non-gun owners like me.[/quote]

I'm confused by your post. You can carry concealed with a permit in DC so go forth if you want.

That being said, I believe ALL gun ownership should come with federal required training including passing a basic test (required in some states so is constitutional with 2a)

But in the US, where any idiot can own a gun and most states don't even require basic training, idiots who think they are Rambo (I hope that's not you?) and aren't properly trained aren't necessarily helping and may potentially hurt an innocent person through misperception of a situation, hurt an innocent bystander, or get shot yourself when police confuse you with the perp.

Read the article posted above and get back to us. If you get a gun though, be responsible and ensure you undergo ongoing training and shooting practice before you're some sad idiot in the news who shoots somebody who knocks on your door.[/quote]
