I began teaching my son at age 6. I've seen children shot and killed by others that hadn't been taught the very basics of gun safety and what a bullet would do to a body.
It's a tool in the hands of someone taught safety and shown what it can do. It's death in those not taught.
Yeah, me too. My kids are now all in their 20's and now need to teach them firearm safety and shooting. Up to now, I didn't think that they even needed to know that. Now, I'm concerned that they will need to know just to survive. I'm in the process of obtaining, via private sale, sufficient types to be able to equip all of us should the need arise. Including a crossbow and wrist rocket slingshots.
