Trained? I kind of doubt it. But I will repeat what I wrote above. "The "Right to Bear" part of the Constitution was to make sure state militias remainedd to keep the peace. This became irrelevant with the creation of the National Guard, but the NSA has perverted the lines to mean that all Americans need guns to protect themselves. I honestly don't understand how having more people owning guns will make gun violence less common. That's like saying "Give all countries nukes, so no one shoots them." And what happens if there is an attack at, say, a crowded restaurant? All the civilians whip out there gus and start shooting at the shooter, but then it would go crasy, because some people wouldn't be able to see the shooter and would shoot an innocent person shooting the shooter. By the time the police arrived, it could be chaos, and then the police might shoot some innocents because they had guns. I don't get how it will make the country safer at all."
