And teaching kids about guns will not solve the serious gun problems in America.

Ok but it’s still a pretty obviously good idea. Will definitely save lives. Children’s lives.

Teaching kids to use guns doesn’t save kids’ lives. If you want to teach em to stay away from guns, that they’re deadly, they shouldn’t touch it and should tell an adult right away go ahead.

Teaching kids to use guns in the name of gun safety is like saying if you don’t teach a kid to drive what’s to stop them from getting hit by a car.

  That IS gun safety education.
  
  Also the first rule of gun safety: a gun is ALWAYS LOADED

    Stop for one second, re read the conversation, and the link. I’m criticizing teaching 7 year old kids to shoot, not criticizing teaching actual gun safety. That was a straw man you set up to knock down.
