    so where’s the training

    For civilians? Hunter safety, otherwise you’re paying for a private tutor.

    I’m all down for more training, so long as it’s free. We should not gatekeep civil liberties behind fees.

    Would you be okay with people having to pay $200 for a training class on how to vote before you were allowed to vote? Of course not. The same is true for the right to own a firearm.

      Funny because you do have to pay for documents like a birth certificate and ID in order to vote in some places. When I got my ID renewed years ago my original birth certificate from the '80s was somehow no longer valid so I had to buy a new one for $60 from some government records company.
