    Some of that stuff you mentioned needs to be mandatory IMO. I’m talking about gun safety lessons for all firearm owners.

      It’s the pro-gun community that insists they shouldn’t be. They’ll literally send you death threats for trying.

        Ok?

        It’s absolutely moronic that we need licenses to drive but not to own and operate firearms.

            Just say that the lessons will be given by the NRA at a price and they’d probably lose most of their institutional backing pretty quickly. Money talks to republicans.

      Gun safety should be a mandatory class in education. Probably a multi-stage class starting with an age appropriate class in Elementary school, a more advanced class in Middle school to demystify and take some of the taboo cool factor out, and again in High school. Range time should be incorporated in High school, and maybe Middle school. We all know abstinence only education doesn’t work.
