I worked with someone who was an NRA certified instructor, competitive shooter, and all around badass.

She hated these chuds in class because they weren’t just idiots who made things unsafe, but they were also misogynists who wouldn’t listen to her instructions.

who wouldn’t listen to her instructions.

Sounds like some people should fail the class if they can't/won't follow simple instructions

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 89 points 4 months ago

She said she had to kick more than a few out of her class. A couple got banned from the range for being dipshits.

Sounds like the camo clad, face painted, Rambo knife holding guides on some nature trails/ glamping grounds.

Just looked it up - CCW stands for "concealed carry weapon", so this was a gun class.

Thanks I was wondering why they had specific classes to learn to rotate things counterclockwise

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago (1 children)

No, you have to pass CCW first, and not all of them do.

[–] syreus@lemmy.world 23 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Until you pass the class you can only rotate things clockwise. Have you been illegally rotating? The Feds are going to hear about this injustice.

[–] Klear@quokk.au 13 points 4 months ago (1 children)

This is why a steer clear of revolvers...

[–] syreus@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

Don't be so dramatic. If it rotates the wrong way just look down the barrel when it fires and you are safe. Why do you think the right is so obsessed with orientation?

[–] Sergio@piefed.social 6 points 4 months ago

Commenter is from Australia. Down there, things naturally rotate counter-clockwise, and they have to take a Clock-Wise class.

I mean his buttons might pop off.

Testing the tensile strength of all that elastic.

I don't know if it's the same everywhere, but where I live, CC classes don't even have guns and you don't shoot. It's all about instructed safety and such.

In Lesser Carolina the teacher is fully armed with multiple concealed guns to show all the ways to conceal. After the classroom session you head out to the range to get tested on marksmanship at different distances.

[–] Zectivi@piefed.social 8 points 4 months ago

My class in Wisconsin was this way as well. The classroom portion focused heavily on trying to avoid needing to use your gun, but if you have to, do these things.

More red flags than a Red Square parade.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 23 points 4 months ago (1 children)

And they’d give him the permit.

[–] YesButActuallyMaybe@lemmy.ca 16 points 4 months ago (1 children)

CCW = concealed carry warrant?

[–] 1995ToyotaCorolla@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

Concealed Carry Weapon, so likely a pistol

[–] SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works 11 points 4 months ago

Either that or counter-clockwise!

[–] buttnugget@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

I just make up nonsense when I don’t know an acronym, so I was thinking closed caption writer.

[–] barnaclebutt@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago (5 children)

Just tell everyone you have a small penis. It's much easier than putting on your hockey gear every morning.
