Huge flood of new gun owners in the last few years. And former gun owners now gun owners again. And gun owners with shiny new carry permits. The numbers are ballooning.

The safety training required to purchase a gun is ZERO in every state I've lived in. The safety training required to get a carry permit is pretty CLOSE TO ZERO too.

So, whaddya expect?

You know how a sport or activity gets ruined by popularity and all the bozos that popularity brings?

P.S. Five people shot at gun shows this weekend. The three shot by the bozo with the shotgun. A fourth shot himself while trying to unload his pistol. A fifth shot by a gun dealer who was inspecting a gun.
