And when something like this happens you should lose your right to own guns. ive already said carry laws need to be fixed. He shouldn’t be in a restaurant with a gun. Big difference between a restaurant and a forest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I still think it's absurd that certain people think it's wrong to take your kids hunting. Literally a ton of activities carry an inherent risk. You could be hit by a car riding your bike or struck in the head playing baseball or involved in a car crash on your way to work. Hunting is actually quite safe, so long as you practice basic safety rules. Most dangerous situation I've been in while hunting was falling asleep on the ground and waking up to finding a skunk just yards away. Accidents are quite rare when hunting.

The fact that the mere thought of ‘Blackman’ and ‘gun’ in the same proximity results police raining down hell fire on innocent black men everyday illustrates that the 2nd amendment isn’t meant for black people.

CitizenVectron Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 There is no point in doing active shooter drills. It traumatizes students and doesn't prepare them for the reality of gunfire. Unless you are going to drill them so much that it all becomes muscle-memory (like in the military), it's just a scary thing for them that won't help them in a real-life crisis. Going over lockdown procedures makes sense (close doors, turn off lights, etc), but actually doing a drill where a fake shooter is going room to room and shooting something at kids and teachers is insane.

Mat least at the school district here, active shooter drills are what you describe as lockdown drills. None of this nerf gun insanity. I’m genuinely baffled by this story.

Tens of thousands a years are culled by hunters. Hogs destroy everything, and spread out to anywhere there is food. They can survive hard winters, and breed multiple times per year.

Yeah I'm not referring to all drills or preparation, of course, but the ones that involve teaching children how to absorb bullets or use shields or rush the shooter. These are all things that 99% of them are going to forget the second a gun is fired. Even professional soldiers break under fire, and they are conditioned to respond by reflex.
