Mandatory NRA Gun Classes in Schools - SC lawmaker proposes
South Carolina Rep. Alan Clemmons proposes that students would learn about gun safety, gun rights, the Second Amendment and the Constitution. It would be a three week course and a companion bill would attendance at shooting ranges.
It is called "The Second Amendment Education Bill" and would designate December 15 as 'Second Amendment Awareness Day' for elementary, middle and high schools.
He filed the bill in response to all the Zero Tolerance rules across the state. Another bill by SC Senator Lee Bright would take the children out to the range for a course on firearm safety. There is opposition to both proposals.
This is nothing new, some might remember 'rod and gun' clubs in schools back in the day. Some bought their rifles to school, or left them in their vehicles when hunting season started.

"Students in South Carolina could soon be studying material endorsed by the National Rifle Association (NRA), if a state lawmaker can successfully push his proposal into law.
Under a measure filed by South Carolina State Rep. Alan Clemmons (R), the state curriculum would require students to take a three-week class focused on the US Constitution – with a special focus on the Second Amendment right to bear arms.
During the class, high school students would learn about gun rights, gun safety, and – if a companion bill also passes into law – potentially attend shooting ranges. There is already a petition to fight the proposal."
