Michigan CHL does more damage than good

Post by mojo84 »

People like this hurt our cause. It's a shame stupid people keep doing stupid things thinking they are doing good.

They do hurt our cause, but I have met people with CHLs and wondered how on earth they could have gotten one in the first place. Nothing against older folks, but I know a lady who shakes terribly and cannot see past the end of her nose that somehow qualified for her CHL. But in the case you're talking about it is not age but having common sense. I fear that the CHL courses have gotten too overly simplified and dumbed-down that people with no common sense can fly right through. But then someone will ask "Doesn't the second amendment apply to those without common sense, too?" Just because someone can give the answers on a test that they are told to give doesn't mean they're not stupid. What this woman did is stupid, and she deserves to be charged and her CHL revoked.

Yeah, if stupidity and idiocy alone were crimes the traffic on the streets wouldn't be near as congested.

Ahhh, the Batman Badge strikes again...

So just for discussion's sake, does the same silliness happen in "Constitutional" carry states?

I will bet you don't change lanes on top of vehicles already occupying that portion of the Highway, as has happened to me at least 4 times in the last several years.

Seems like some of the newer "Professional Drivers" are not professional. That and tailgating and cutting in with less than 50 feet clearance happen regularly now. 20 years ago those things happened with much less regularity.


BTW my last comment on this particular subject in this thread. Anyone wants to comment to me, PM. I will not continue a hijack. :thumbs2:
I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on.
I don't do those things to other people and I require the same of them.

Don’t pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he’ll just kill you.
