Firearms trainer keeps license despite being accused of running a scam

[SecularMotion]

Vladislav Shestopal cut an intimidating figure as a security guard. At 18, he was already broad-shouldered and bulky, with buzzed hair and a scowl.

But Shestopal knew he’d make more money if he carried a gun. So he signed up for state-mandated firearm training and drove to a Sacramento, California, address for the course.

He expected to spend about two days training, including half a day at a shooting range, as required for armed security guards in the state. Instead, he said the trainer – Anthony Noyola – shuffled him into a dingy apartment building that smelled of cats and marijuana, asked for $100 and signed his paperwork.

“I’m like, ‘So is that it?’ ” Shestopal recalled asking as his trainer handed the documents back to him. The answer sticks in his mind: “Hell’s yeah, that’s it. Just don’t go shoot anybody in the back.”

2. Sounds like an enforcement issue

oh, oops
can't say that...

We need a law with stronger penalties for trainers who do not follow California training requirements!

The “2013 State Scorecard: Why Gun Laws Matter,” released today ranks all fifty states based on thirty policy approaches to regulating guns and ammunition, such as background checks on gun sales, reporting lost or stolen firearms, and prohibiting dangerous people from purchasing weapons.

States received points for having effective laws in each policy area, with stronger laws receiving more points. A letter grade (A to F) indicates the overall strength or weakness of a state's gun laws.

California received an A- and continues to top the list of states with the strongest gun reform measures in the country.

3. Here's a thought for the control minded...

...having an unenforced/unenforceable law = having no law.

4. Accusation? Show me a conviction.

I hereby accuse you of DUI. Please surrender your license immediately.

Investigate, indict, try, and convict or exonerate. Due process, doncha know. Not a big fan of lettres de cachet.

The only reason this slob us still in business is that the state is derelict in its enforcement duties. Hey, Cali? You like to pass laws; you just don't like to enforce them.

5. Guess California should enforce

some of it's existing laws.

So what are your thoughts on your latest Google cut and paste OP?
