Minnesota’s ban on 18- to 20-year-olds obtaining a permit to publicly carry a handgun violates the US Constitution, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday.
There are Indeed Walmarts that sell handguns (Alaska). And while there are no Walmarts that will sell a handgun to an 18yo, there are legal ways for an 18yo to both purchase and possess a handgun.
I agree. Schools need to teach kids practical skills. Firearms handling and use among them. Other good ones would be how to file taxes, how credit cards/loans work, how to repair basic items around the house, how to cook basic meals, etc. It doesn’t need to dominate schooling, a class or two covering the above in highschool would be plenty. Most of those topics are pretty short, but very important for life.
Then maybe we should make sure it’s in proper working order. Because selling an 18 year old a handgun at Walmart with no training ain’t that.
You must not be American. There are literally no Walmarts that sell handguns, and if they did, it wouldn’t be legal to sell them to 18 year olds.
But they will sell you a long rifle at 16.
