OK I'm not seeing how the course was a waste since apparently you were going to get yourself in trouble before you took it anyhow. The laws don't change about when you can shoot someone just because you have a CCW, so now you at least know when you can and can't. It sounds like before you took the CCW course, you were on a good path to get yourself into a lot of trouble legally when you use your gun unwarrantedly.
Yeah, there are lots of restrictions because people don't trust other people with guns or weapons in general. Some of the restrictions are stupid. Some are not. The restrictions saying that you can't shoot someone until there is an immediate threat don't seem stupid to me at all. Consider I'm jogging down a trail at night and the woman infront of me decides that I'm stalking her and shoots me to keep herself safe just because she's a paranoid little nut. Too many people are not of the right mindset to just be given an open license to kill.
