CCW

I had an interesting day yesterday. Joe, my neighbors, Chris and I went to a gun store and sat in a class all day. What was the class about? Well, it was a class you have to take to get your permit to carry a concealed weapon. Now, I am able to carry a gun on my person as long as it is concealed. The guy teaching the class was a little on the extreme side but I saw his point of view. We learned the laws and rights that we have and the rights of others. We also had to shoot the weapon(s) that we wanted to have the right to carry. We had to be able to hit the target in the right spot. It was fun. I have guns in my home. They all have locks on them or are locked up. My children are taught the proper use and handleing of guns. I believe it is my right to own them. They had a video that interviewed criminals and they asked if the right to bear arms should be taken away. Their response was no that would make it way to easy to rob and harm others. They also said that criminals would get guns no matter what. It was great to take the class even if I wasn't getting my CCW. I do have my own gun it is a P22 which is a 22 automatic pistol. Joey also went to the class but it was to renew his CCW.
After the class we went to Bass Pro Shops. That is a great store. Then we ate at the Silverton. We ate a wonderful meal at the steak house in there. It wasn't to expensive and the food was great. They have a hugh fish tank full of awesome fish. A mermaid even comes and swims in it, she is so cute with the kids that watch.
Friday night I got to see the Osmonds. We stayed for a meet and great. They are a great family. I saw them before the preformance in the casino as we were walking through. They put on a fantastic show. I really hate it when the groupies get up and go stand at the front of the stage and swing their bums. Most of them have larger bums than when they were teenagers (mine included). It makes it hard to see the show. I got my picture taken with the Osmonds. I remember when I was much younger they used to always come to the Tropicana chapel and my ward when they were in town. Oh such memories.
