9 years old, over at my friend’s house, his parents were out back in the yard.
My friend “want to see my dad’s rifle?”
My other friend says sure, i follow.
Go to his parents closet, in the back is a bolt action hunting rifle. My friend picks it up and starts to point it.
I say “let me see that”. Proceed to point it at the ground, open the chamber and make sure it was clear, then comment on how cool it was and pass it back.
Seemed common sense to me, but a lot of kids just don’t know how to treat them.
Teaching your kids gun safety is like teaching them how to swim. You may never plan for them to be around guns, you may live in the middle of nebraska and never plan to go near water, but a little timeI spent teaching them can save lives.
So you have a story how some unsupervised, nine year old kids could just grab a firearm from a closet and you want to sell this as an argument about how your society’s approach to handling guns is reasonable?
Be me.

No. I want to say that teaching your kids how to safely handle a situation is good.
