There's no question that discussions about guns brings some really
crazy
people out of the woodwork. To be involved on an issue where the
others
on your side include the likes of Wayne LaPierre, the new crazyman
who
is the head of the NRA and, of course, Ted Nugent, would make many
rational people get themselves "uninvolved."

---------------------------------------------

I recently heard about a proposal in some California location to add
a
"gun safety" course to the curriculum in a charter school system.
My
knee jerk reaction was that it was a stupid idea but then I thought
about it some more. It seems that school systems in general have
had
to take on the responsibility of educating youth in all types of
subjects that are not related directly to academics and that in past
generations were handled by parents. Since firearms and their use
are
so prevalent in our society, why shouldn't educating youth on their
dangers and safe handling not be included?

I took driver's education in Connecticut in 1964. One of the
classroom
instruction periods was conducted by a trooper from the CT State
Police. He presented a movie (old fashioned projector back then)
with
some of the most horrific and gory images of people dismembered or
having sustained horrible injuries or deaths due to car crashes,
mostly
due to speeding. I don't remember much of anything else
specifically
that was taught in classroom instruction of driver's ed but the
images
contained in that presentation remain fresh in my mind 47 years
later.

My conclusion was that as much as some would like, guns are not
going
to go away in our society. A little education never hurt anybody.






I agree that it would be a good idea to have firearm safety offered,
but
not in the public schools and not by a political organization like the
NRA. I think organizations like the Boy Scouts could do it, and even
put
on programs *in* the public schools, as a community service.

Public school assets are already stretched very thin. Diverting any
funds to pay for firearms safety courses means the teaching of basic
educational skills and course in phys ed and the arts will suffer
further.

I don't recall a driver's ed program in high school, but that doesn't
mean there wasn't one. I do remember a rather forward-thinking sex ed
class and film in the 7th grade, taught by a nurse.

----------------------------------

Good points regarding the stretching of school assets and I agree the
NRA should not be involved although promoting gun safety *was* the
original and primary purpose of the NRA before guns became such a
political issue.

When I was a kid ... maybe 8 or 9 years old, I wanted a Daisy BB gun
so bad I constantly bugged the heck out of my parents for one.
Finally one Christmas morning, there it was. But my father spent
hours with me on it's use, treating it like it was a Swedish Mauser or
something. It was the type that you could load up the whole barrel
with BBs that were sold in a little cardboard tube with a blue
cardboard cap that converted into a funnel. The BBs were loaded
through a little hole in the barrel. When full, the rifle was muzzle
heavy as hell, and off into the woods I'd go to "hunt". (never shot
anything)
But it seems to me that I remember a Boy Scout meeting at which some
representative gave a presentation on BB gun safety and also
demonstrated some "real" rifles. I don't know who he was or what
group he represented but it he could have very well been a
representative of the NRA. This would be in the late 50's.


See above.

Talking about them in a public forum not meant

don't understand that, because they're gun

An exception here would be an anti-pirate gun
kept on the boat, for those who travel in
pirate waters. Those bringing that up will be
quickly told that pirates have more and bigger

Of course the NRA would contest that, and say
that simply having more guns aboard to equip
everybody in your family/crew/squad is how it
should be done to ward off the "bad guys."
Maybe another "exception" would be an anti-
shark gun kept on the boat, to which the
answer would be don't swim with sharks, and
don't shoot at sharks circling a swimmer.
You might kill the swimmer, and if you blood
the shark, you'll just attract more....sharks.
I have no real problem ignoring the gun

only respond when I feel like calling gun nuts
trash, which is as it should be. They fully
deserve it.
I don't know why these guys get on your case

But you might lay off until they start another
of their gun jack off sessions, to see how
long that lasts.
Hypocrisy and faulty logic should be called
out. So give them a chance to show it again.
Makes for a more balanced circle of nonsense.
If they want to talk about boats, nobody's
stopping them.


The news makes 'em feel bad about their love of guns.

I don't mind those who own guns responsibly and I suspect the gun nuts

Are all gun owners 'gun nuts'? Why should not responsible owners have a desire to own their guns?

As to 'privacy, search and seizure, free speech and whatever else', it seems the folks currently in
power are doing their best to stomp on those rights also - or have you not noticed?

Do female gun owners also worry about 'there' (sic) dick extensions?

Meanwhile the country's kids are at risk from assholes who can't resist texting while driving.

More people have died riding in a car with Ted Kennedy than have died from any firearms I may
own. A responsible person doesn't kill, or cause the death of, an innocent young lady by
leaving them to drown in a submerged car.

If you want to talk about responsibility then talk about responsibility and not just aboue
firearms.

The "gun rights" are enshrined in the US Constitution. The police are not available to
protect you and if you depend upon them to assist you, you may be dead before they ever get
to your house.

citys-new-911-system/


Not even worth responding to. Your attempt at moral equivalents is
lost. Ted Kennedy doesn't leave girls to drown 30,000 times a year.

More of a big game gun if you ask me. I doubt if many people would

What does "firearms and their use are so prevalent in our

Hope you realize that the great majority of people in the

a gun except on the hip of a LEO.
This all sounds like an NRA wet dream to increase gun
sales. Akin to pot-smoking and coke-sniffing drug
dealers thinking it's a good idea to teach proper drug
consumption in school.
I mean, drug use is "so prevalent," right?
Same with sado-masochists. Because they hang with other
sado-masochists they think the world is chock full of
them and it's perfectly normal. Hell, let's put it in the

Get some perspective.
You'll find that people who want to live their lives
without guns, "recreational" drugs, and sado-masochism
will just tell you that your idea of teaching what they
consider perversions to their children is plain wacko.
And that's the great majority of people.
Most of whom do drive a car more often than they put on
their pants, so they consider driver's ed valuable.
But the Amish will tell you to shove your driver's ed up
your ass too.

-----------------------------------

I see. There is rarely a day that goes by without some news
regarding gun control issues or coverage of a gun related accident in
the media. That's what I am referring to in the statement "firearms
and their use are so prevalent in our society"

But it appears your solution is to stick your head in the sand and
pretend it doesn't exist. Apparently in your mind "It doesn't apply
or affect me, so there's no need to be involved in the solution".
Sounds like a typical response of the "Me" generation.

I don't think guns and their ownership by private citizens will ever
be, nor should it ever be prohibited. Like it or not, they are part
of your life, whether you choose to own one or not. So what's wrong
with some general education in the safe handling and dangers
associated with them so people are better informed overall? If the
only input young people receive is in Hollywood movies or some video
game I don't think they are getting a realistic or helpful image of
what firearm ownership is all about.

But it appears your solution is to stick your head in the sand and
pretend it doesn't exist. Apparently in your mind "It doesn't apply
or affect me, so there's no need to be involved in the solution".
Sounds like a typical response of the "Me" generation.


No, guns haven't affected me at all. And I'll do my best
to keep it that way. I'm here saying me and countless
others will resist any attempt to foist guns on our kids
in school in the guise of teaching "gun safety." You can
teach your kids about guns all you want and I couldn't
care less. Or about safe "drug use" for all I care.
If you think me stating MY view about public education is
"sticking my head in the sand" you're not very logical.
Keeping guns from criminals and psychos is an entirely
different issue than foisting guns into public education.
The law part interests me because it's entertaining
hearing all the illogical bull****, lying and hypocrisy.

I don't think guns and their ownership by private citizens will ever
be, nor should it ever be prohibited. Like it or not, they are part
of your life, whether you choose to own one or not.


What the **** did I just tell you!? You hard of hearing?
Guns play NO ****ING ROLE IN MY LIFE. NADA! The only
time I even think about them is when I feel like
discussing them in a forum full of gun nuts. You just
can't understand that I guess. But it's true for me and
for the great majority of people.
IF YOU DON'T OWN A GUN YOU DON'T NEED "GUN SAFETY."
Most people DON'T own a gun, and even fewer kids.
Hey, why don't you suggest "safe fishing" courses for
schools. Makes more sense. Abu-Garcia will love you.

So what's wrong
with some general education in the safe handling and dangers
associated with them so people are better informed overall? If the
only input young people receive is in Hollywood movies or some video
game I don't think they are getting a realistic or helpful image of
what firearm ownership is all about.


What's wrong with it? I don't ****ing want my kids
exposed to guns. THAT'S WHAT WRONG WITH IT. When
they're adults, they can make their own choices.
Take it up with your local school board if you like.
I don't give a **** how many guns you buy, or how you
want to educate your kids.
You're talking about public schooling, and when I express
my view of what's a no-go for my kids, you accuse me of
"head in sand" and "me generation."
Well, thanks for the childish insults. Good luck with the
school board. You'll find plenty like me at the
meetings, but the moms will give you even more hell for
your idea, which your knee correctly informed you was
stupid.
You ain't gonna have any fun at all with it. It's a
bull**** idea only entertained by gun nuts.
