This is how you keep kids from shooting guns they find....teach them the gun safety rules...
Guns come to CO middle school in the name of safety
Students at one Colorado City middle school had the unique opportunity to learn a different – and sometimes controversial – kind of lesson this week. The youngsters spent three days learning about gun safety through a program known as Project Appleseed.
“We’re teaching them about the firearms so they are familiar with them, they can be safe with them,” the program’s state coordinator, Jim Heath, told a local NBC affiliate during one of the training days at Craver Middle School.
Heath explained he feels it is better for young boys and girls to know about guns and how to handle them, essentially replacing fear with respect.
“It’s not, ‘Oh, what’s this? What can we do with this?’” Heath said.
