Would you support a firearm safety and training class in school?
Entirely elective and done on a NRA certified range with NRA certified instructors after the school day, or at any point in a day at a Community College.
This would teach high school or community college students firearm safety, maintenance, as well as train them to be proficient with a number of firearms.
People leaving this class will leave with a safety mindset when dealing with firearms and they can go one to teach others that safety. Or they can go from the class and enter into a competition shooting team and shoot incompletely with other schools.
We can't expect everyone to be as safety N@ZI as I am. I live, breath, and eat the 4 golden rules of handling a firearm.

Gonna be honest here. I don't know why people keep reviving this thread lol
-
-
Yes, I would. I would also support removing gun-free zones around schools.
-
Yeah but if a crazy kid learns how to use a gun effectively because of the course I would expect serious backlash. The firearm safety won't mean anything when someone deranged uses the gun on campus because the other students won't have guns so they can't defend themselves

1 Antwortenhells yes. it should give elective credits towards civics and/or social sciences. i support bringing the NRA into all pre-k through 2nd grade schools as part of the Eddie Eagle program. anyone who opposes the idea of the eddie eagle program does not care about the safety of America's children.

1 AntwortenFun fact: they used to have them
-
Well you do the EXACT THING for cars.
-
It would be awesome, but not worth the costs.
-
That would be nice, but it better be regulated very strictly and guarded more fiercely than the White House, i don't trust teenagers with uncontrollable hormones getting access to firearms.
-
I think it would be pretty awsome to have this. Plus almost everyone owns at least one gun where I live.

Do I get to drive an Abrams?

12 AntwortenWell, yes, but I don't think you can really make gun safety into a 16-week course. I would support it as an elective class, maybe something like Marksmanship or something.
-
Sure but no live rounds for kids because we all know not to trust those idiots. My bro can support an argument that every teacher should have a fire arm though basically to eliminate school shootings.
-
The JROTC Course in my High School used to have a live ammo range. No shit. I learned well before then, of course, but we had it. It was there that I learned accuracy.
-
4 AntwortenNo. This is a bad idea because you have live guns on school grounds. Parents won't allow it. The only program that should be handling guns is the JROTC program. Period.
-
Guns aren't common enough (in Australia) to warrant such a class.
-
3 AntwortenNo , we don't need guns on the school grounds that is a terrible idea. But maybe if there was a non hands on class on about safety. But even then, our school system has better things to spend time and money on than guns.
-
Hell ya, then so many people wouldn't have irrational and paranoid fears of a tool. It's senseless.

-
I graduated from a high school in 2010 that has a shooting team.
-
Where do I sign up?
-
Absolutely. I'd like to see someone try to argue against safety training, though I bet some would.
-
8 Antwortensure, but include basics of self defense, and also issue tight pants for tight groupings.
-
1 AntwortenI'm not sure that I could carry that many people.

1 Antwortenwhat will this do exactly? make sure kids know what they're doing when they aim a gun at their French teacher? i'm not sure how big a problem accidental gun deaths are in America but if it's so big that you need a national safety class then i suppose it's warranted.
