:iagree:

I can read the CHL-16 without having to sit through a class and spend $50 or so..

Florida doesn't require ANY class or any test. Nearly any firearms training class is sufficient, same as Arizona.

Florida Statute:

(h) Demonstrates competence with a firearm by any one of the following:
1. Completion of any hunter education or hunter safety course approved by the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission or a similar agency of another state;
2. Completion of any National Rifle Association firearms safety or training course;
3. Completion of any firearms safety or training course or class available to the general public offered by a law enforcement, junior college, college, or private or public institution or organization or firearms training school, utilizing instructors certified by the National Rifle Association, Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, or the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services;
4. Completion of any law enforcement firearms safety or training course or class offered for security guards, investigators, special deputies, or any division or subdivision of law enforcement or security enforcement;
5. Presents evidence of equivalent experience with a firearm through participation in organized shooting competition or military service;
6. Is licensed or has been licensed to carry a firearm in this state or a county or municipality of this state, unless such license has been revoked for cause; or

That is what Ohio does. Attorney General publishes a "Concealed Carry Handbook". The CHL affirms under penalty of perjury that they have downloaded and reviewed the current pamphlet as part of the application.
It'll never work. It's FAR too reasonable and requires people to exhibit a modicum of personal responsibility.

I disagree...

To paraphrase...

People who are responsible for conceal carrying a firearm should be up to speed on changing legislation. The most efficient way to do this is by reading the laws. They are posted online in very convenient places and are easy to read. Please do not mandate time and expense to me just because it would make YOU* more comfortable to do it that way.

(* by YOU, I mean the royal YOU.. as in, anyone/everyone. I'm not picking on Busy_Mom, just disagreeing with the notion that EVERYONE needs yet another training class to keep current on CHL law)
