Thank goodness for Pres Trump & his Supreme Court appointees. By exempting retired police from gun laws, our Gov't has truly created a privileged class of people. Per the 14th Amendment, Government people can't be given rights that non-Government people don't have: 14th Amendment... "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." By writing laws that favor retired gov't employees over non-gov't employees, the anti-gun laws are not "equally protection" everyone

Ex Carnival, I think some of the pro-2nd amendment folks are very responsible. Too responsible in some ways. They only want the best of the best to own a gun. And avoid an accidental shooting at all costs. It's very noble. But it's going to stop 90% of average folks from being able to own and bear arms

Under Bruen, the US Supreme Court ruled any gun law has to be ". . . consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation." Being an expert shooter with a tiny handgun or requiring liability insurance or banning carry in your car or at the public park, all may have some benefit, but all have no "historical tradition." So unless the Supreme Court reads " high level of proficiency," in the 2nd Amendment, it's really unconstitutional to require such a test, imho. It's a good idea to shoot accurately. But it's not Constitutional and will be rejected by the US Supreme Court at some point, imho

In the Army, the distance to qualify with a M16 rifle was about 100 meters vs only 25 or 30m for a 9mm weapon. Why? Because the smaller the gun, the harder it is to hit a target. In any event, I'm going to try qualifying with both weapons and will probably only qualify with the Taurus .38 revolver. I also think this requirement is Unconstitutional and will eventually be ruled as such
