If they didn't they wouldn't be able to pass the written test. If they don't know how to handle a gun they couldn't pass the range test.
People pass written tests all the time. Been driving lately? lol
I would at least have a few good conversations with a criminal defense lawyer with some experience in defending these kinds of cases. If you've done that, well then good on you for doing your homework I reckon.
If I was unarmed at a convenient store while it was getting robbed, and another patron pulled out his weapon, I would at least have some assurance they had the training and testing that I did. Now with constitutional carry, I'd be more scared of him than I would be the robber. It could be somebody like this clown in the OP.
When I was in Louisiana years ago, your car was considered an extension of your home. The tricky part is that you could possess a firearm w/o a permit in your car, but the law and consequences change the moment you step out of it. They've got CCW nowadays of course but I don't think that was a thing until the mid to late 1990s as I recall. Then of course you can cross state lines and then you're dealing with completely different laws. Not saying a person shouldn't carry or be prepared to defend himself, but far too many people put themselves in legal jeopardy with good intentions in mind but total ignorance of the law.
