SM tries its best to separate you from your personal information and most importantly, your money and sometimes when used in a way nobody ever intended, separate you from your life.

When modern humans are about you can bet stupidity will follow.

Dangerous tools (and dumb ideas) like guns….and knives and chainsaws….and these types of people can never exist in the same world without injury.

It makes gun ownership rights preservation that much more difficult when these types of people are out there.

Society refuses to take the necessary steps to stop this behavior.

The devolution is accelerating, actually. Modern tech reduces the intelligence threshold necessary to survive to reproductive age, cultural taboos prevent regulation of breeding frequency for individuals with societally undesirable traits, and medical advances allow suboptimal offspring to pass on their flawed genes.

Watch Idiocracy, it would be funny if it weren't so prophetic.
 
I took my 16 year old son to the range two weeks ago, .22’s snd 9mm’s that day…

And he shot 3- position air rifle at a JROTC event last weekend. (Took 12th of 36, not his best results but he had a good time trying.)

Every chance you get try and pass on firearms respect and knowledge to a junior person. It is the only way the future for firearms ownership can be assured for tomorrow.

Stay safe.
 
Sad, sorry to see a kid get hurt.

BB guns are much more powerful now than when we had BB gun wars at scout camp. At least then you could also shoot back.

Looks like the lad can properly grip a handgun and knows how to shoulder a long arm. Good job!
 
I see a lot of parents bringing young people to the range where I go. I myself have taken both my girls multiple times. The RO even knows them now. My oldest now 25 does not have much interest but she's not afraid of firearms and knows their purpose. The youngest still tags along now and then. I think I enjoy her shooting more than I enjoy shooting myself. Honestly I'd rather watch the kids shoot safely and properly than shoot alone at the range.

I think there is hope. You just have to look in the real world not on TV or the internet. :)

Tic Tok challenge has kids shooting at one and other with BB guns. Kids are glued to personal devices and it’s obvious no good can, at times, come of it.

As long as it's not a real gun, I don't see the gun grabbers trying to use incidences like this against us. They have much better examples of teens in Chicago and other low income and high crime liberal hellholes to use. Plus whether we teach or children how shoot at a young age or not, it's usually the single parent spoiled brats who are doing dumb stuff like in the OP because that haven't been taught any better.
