"...the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
No mandatory ANYTHING in order to exercise the right both to possess and to bear (carry) arms.
Period. The end.
I'm all for training, and have a fair amount of professional training and certification personally. Training however, should be made attractive via incentives of some sort, NOT be mandatory.
After all, who would enforce the "mandatoriness"? Let any sort of gubmint overseership get a toe-hold on this, and it will be misused, that's guaranteed. Or is anyone still naive enough to trust the federal government?
