"RIGHT to bear arms."

not

"if you're a good shot, right to bear arms."

In some ways, I agree, there should be competency testing before folks can carry a gun. BUT, as soon as you start making a right conditional, it is no longer a right.

It's a fine line, I'd prefer the folks with CCW to be smart, trained, level headed folks, but it is a right for EVERYONE.

Driving is a privilege, there's a test. Having a gun is a right, the only test should be "human and a heartbeat". I guess being a felon means you have lost some of your rights.
