Here's the scenario. YOU, THE BYSTANDER, are at your local gunclub/FFL where a soon-to-be graduate of a major LE organization academy in a major County in a very large State has purchased a handgun, a rather expensive Sig-Sauer...
The LE purchaser was still required to pass a written true-false examination to obtain a Handgun Safety Certificate, a prerequisite to purchase of the firearm, and to wait ten days to pick up the gun.
The soon-to-be LE grad passed the written test.
You, however, happen to overhear that he has answered incorrectly two or three questions concerning justifiable use of deadly force. These may be the only questions posed that concerned use of deadly force. The salesman is flabbergasted, you are flabbergasted.
The LE grad says he's 'tired', but when further queried about the wrong answers by the salesman the LE still quibbles about the wording of the question(s) and obviously reads too much into them. You’re a bit ‘shocked’, so is the salesman.
A few days pass and you are concerned about the matter. It 'comes up' in your thoughts.
The particular LE organization from which this person will graduate has no shortage of shootings.
You think 'if this were a civilian I would not be as concerned, but this guy's gonna carry a gun at all times and perhaps encounter an innocent civilian and shoot him due to 'reading too much' into his conduct.
Assume the LE grad can not be forced to take the written examination again because he still passed the exam as his overall score was 'satisfactory'.
What should YOU, an ordinary member and customer of the gunclub/FFL, do, if anything, and WHY?
