there are 190+ NRA courses scheduled within a 50 mile radius of Atlanta between now and July 2013.. there will likely be over 300 before the end of the year (9+ a week)...

there are over 50 classes scheduled within a 50 mile radius of San Diego between now and the end of the year.. There will probably be 60 classes there before 2013 is up (in an obviously much less gun friendly state.. )..

thats more than 1 a week around San Diego alone...

there are almost 350 NRA classes scheduled throughout the state of California in 2013 already... 215 classes scheduled in New York (a much geographically smaller state), and almost 250 classes scheduled all over the state of Illinois...

three of the most gun unfriendly states in the country are going to see over 800 NRA training events this year...

Florida, one of the most gun friendly states, has over 840 training classes scheduled in 2013 already...

again.. these numbers will grow.. this is just what the instructor group (again, almost 95,000 people) have scheduled as of the second week of January...

but you dont think they offer enough training in enough locations to be considered convienient?

What part of "shall not be infringed" don't all you "on the fence" people not understand? Why is the argument so off course with practically NO ONE addressing the real issue?? The second Amendment has absolutley nothing to do with hunting or personal protection. It is there so that we can keep ourselves free from an oppressive government. The president should rot in hell for dancing on the graves of innocent murdered children to push his Communist agenda which is to disarm the American people so the elitists can rule without fear!
No one has the right to question why a citizen needs a weapon with 30 round clips....as long as the military and police have them, then we need them. Please do not flame me as this post is NOT directed at anyone here.
You sir "Get it". Too bad there are so many that do not.

Ah, Mike. . .You will be happy to know that I am re-reading The Federalist Papers, which are unbelievably clear regarding the points you make. Too bad so many focus on the politics and amendment wording rather than understanding why the 2nd was included in the Bill of Rights. . .:yes:
