Mandatory Training

More Copycat Killings and a Proposal

Have stores post signs and provide a discount to licensed concealed weapons holders.

Takeaways:

  • Some mass killings have been stopped by private citizens with their own weapons
  • Stores increase their security by advertising a discount to people licensed concealed weapons holders

I like the proposal on the face of it, but the authors suggestion for a mandatory training requirement goes too far. If you have mandatory training as requirement then some administrator can simply raise the standards beyond what is attainable, or limit the number of qualification tests.
