One simple lesson.
Lesson 1.
The only safe gun is one not being held by a human.
Lesson 2. Refer to lesson 1.
Lesson over.
It makes no sense to me , people know a gun in the hands of a person can kill.
Yet people do not "THINK" .
Yet these same people will get in their cars and won't drive blind folded because it obviously dangerous.
But will pick up a gun blindfolded in a sense.
Men more then women need to get their ego outta the way when picking up a gun the first time.
Being a man and having testosterone does not make you a firearms expert.
Sadly more novice women fear guns and are way more careful then novice men.
My wife is meticulous about her gun and fear years ago was turned into knowledge and respect .
Novice men should head the wisdom of novice women.
Where have you been driving? In PDX I see people driving as though they WERE blindfolded ALL the time! Texting, talking and unable to signal or make smooth turn, completely oblivious to all the trafic behind them due to them going ten miles under the speed limit, AAAA! On the freeways, in town,
at the grocery store! They may as well be blindfolded!
It's time we gun owners lobby law makers for some kind of penalties for irresponsible/negligent gun handling. The guy that left the CCW in the theater,
CWP suspended for a year and a $300.00-$500.00 fine, maybe have to take a gun handling course to regain CWP. The four basic rules of gun handling
should be plastered everywhere, on your safe, in your safe, on your gun cases, on the walls of gun shops in BIG letters. Hell, I've got to the point I even keep my trigger finger straight when I take a leak!
