It will be nice to arm all those boys who spend all night emptying out vehicles. Make sure they are good marksmen who can mow down any vehicle owner who tries to stop them.

Back when i was in High School, we had military recruiters show up and quietly try to get us to enlist. Once in we were allowed to touch fully automatic weapons..

Please check your weapons before entering Kindergarten.

The people you support do not follow the rule of law.

When I was in high school, I was in JROTC. We were taught, among many other things, gin safety and marksmanship. There was a shooting range on another high school several miles away, where we would sometimes go in groups to practice shooting.

Over Easter Vacation, (that was before the politically-correct bullshit forced it to remove the reference to a Christian holiday and call it Spring Break instead) we'd go spend the week at a military base, living something close to the life of real soldiers. The activities there involved, among other things, getting to shoot fully-automatic M-16 rifles and M60 machine guns.

This dovetails in pretty nicely with the frightened white guy thread.

Skeet shooting was a part of gym class my junior year in HS

Everyone was required to attend.

There are laws. Plenty of laws.

I got my first firearm at 11 years old. Groups like gun manufacturers who support the N.R.A. Support the NRAs gun safety program and youth shooting programs. I have always felt these programs would be good for all schools to teach responsible gun ownership. Start early with safety programs is the key. In all my life I have never shot up a school or anywhere else.

2. again, this is NOT a major problem/etc........there's no crime being committed/etc
--the much bigger problem is the LIES and myths by '''influencers'''

My wife has a shotgun that her parents gave to her as a Christmas present when she was eight years old.

She looks quite mature for an 8 year old...

She was somewhat older than that when I took that picture. I was thinking, as I posted it, that perhaps I need to take a new picture of her with her shotgun, as that is really not a very good picture.

It is a good all around first fire arm. Shot sizes from small game to big game and will take care of the bad guys as well.
