That extrapolation is like saying that someone who participates in a fire evac drill is waiting for their house/work/school to burn down.

Being prepared for an emergency situation doesn’t mean you’d want it to happen.

It's less hoops than gun nuts jump through. Being prepared for an emergency vs being prepared to kill are vastly different. The problem is gun nuts won't acknowledge their raging boners at the thought of using a gun in the slightest perception of an inconvenience. The John Wayne mentality is a detriment to society

Primary purpose of a fire drill is what? Readiness for a fire.

  Yes that’d be it and the primary purpose of firearms training is establishing proficiency in the event one might need to utilize a firearm in self or common defense.
