I didn't say it should be mandatory, rather that the second amendment does indeed address this issue - A well-regulated militia... What that really means is a well-trained and running group of citizens.

The elephant in the room is *who* decides the training and how much. I'm fine with people owning firearms without training and don't have problems with people convicted of crimes having firearms. It's what one does with them that should be the concern. A felon has just as much right to defend themselves as gramma.

My point is that the second amendment does indeed address the issue of training.

BTW, I don't see where I can quote a response for replies. Where is it?
