Dipshits who can't shoot have no business carrying in the first place.

Fine, start with disarming the cops. I see more, and more egregious, safety violations combined with less-skillful shooting from LEOs than from any other sector of society of occupational niche. I am -vastly- more afraid of a cop with a gun than the average civilian carrier.

No, it's a prime example of why people need to take -full- responsibility for their personal defense, not just buying a gun but getting training for it. The idea that I, you, or anyone else must ask Massa's permission before carrying a weapon to defend our lives is offensive, ridiculous, and runs counter to everything the Bill Of Rights (all of it, not just the 2A) is about. I held my nose and got the damned thing just in order to cover my family's ass. The right of armed self-defense is universal, absolute, unalienable and irreducable. Any person; man or woman, young or old, sick or well, gay or straight, has the right to carry the weapon of their choice anywhere in public spaces (as distinct from on private property) without asking anyones permission. The abrogation of this right has been a major symptom of the erosion of liberty in this country ever since the "Remington & Colt Pistol Act" was passed to disarm freed Blacks and ensure a safe working environment for the Pennyrollers and Ku Kluxers.
