    Of course, her car is probably more dangerous to the public than her gun.
-Probably why we have mandatory drivers education classes and a, sometimes rather difficult, written test.

All of the restrictions seem legitimate to me, but I would think that the burden to prevent guns on premise should fall on the business owner to clearly mark each entrance, with a sign that looks something like this:

I really don't know why anyone would be opposed to a one-time, mandatory gun safety class for prospective gun owners? If you are already knowledgeable because you grew up around guns, then you will be a true asset to the class and we in society will be grateful. Just take it. Then, after that you never have to take it again.
