As far as the question about insisting others practice or not carry. I'll not elevate myself above other free men, in an effort to infringe upon their Natural Rights.
From personal experience it's not so much infringing on others rights as it is a matter of safety. My father has a carry permit and luckily he doesn't carry. Why do I say that? Because aside from shooting a mag of ammo from his gun when he bought it 15 years ago....The last time he shot a gun was about 5 years ago when I dragged him to the range. I had to beg him to go. He's one that believes a gun is a gun and you just point where you want the bullet to go and pull the trigger. At 5 yards he COULD NOT hit paper. Had that been a real self defense situation he would have killed someone innocent. Would you have been OK with that if it was one of your relatives walking by? Certain things require practice.
