Re: "Perhaps we should impose the same rules for personal firearms as we do in the Army, like not being issued a weapon until you pass a class and demonstrate that you're qualified to shoot it..."

In other words, junk the 2nd Amendment. We already suspected you had UnAmerican beliefs. This confirms it. (Unless you're suggesting it be legally repealed - which is fine with me. You'll never succeed, but you're welcome to pursue this.)

Consider that the purpose of the 2nd Amendment is to allow the citizens to rise up against an overbearing government. If government does as you propose and selects the people who "pass a class and demonstrate that [they]'re qualified to shoot," don't you see that there'd be just the tiniest bit of conflict of interest? Tyrants could legally prevent any opponent from fighting back.

Yeah. Great idea you've got there, OCU.
