This is why you go through gun safety first.

A foot is better than getting it in the ass any day in my book..

#18, please explain to me why you think that is a good idea

This is why America is ridiculous. This sort of shit doesn't regularly happen in other countries.

You know what else doesn't happen in other countries? People successfully defending themselves from criminals who manage to get guns regardless of their legality, because that's the nature of criminals.

And did you know that the Japanese had considered a land invasion on America during WWII, but decided against it because so many Americans had guns? True story.

That why you take a firearms safety course. So you can be trained to use them. I'm sorry, but I'd rather rely on my gun if someone breaks into my house than the cops that are about 25 minutes away.

Why? Because some idiot shot her son in the foot? You know what? I think only chefs should be allowed to use stoves and knives because they're trained to use them, since some idiots burn and cut themselves. And only professional drivers should be allowed to have cars since they're trained to use them and some idiots crash them. I mean, it's not like professionals ever misuse guns, knives, stoves, or cars. No no no. They're always responsible and never make silly mistakes that get themselves or others hurt or killed. It's only we moronic plebeians do that. Right? RIGHT???

Only your mom would know if she hit the target or not.

Hopefully this taught you that guns aren't toys that are there to entertain you when you're looking for something to do on your birthday. They are a weapon and a tool. Don't use them unless you have a reason to. Silly Americans with their "guns are fun" mentality.

Shooting is an olympic sport.

And how does one learn to fire guns safely and accurately for those times when you "need to?" Hmmmmmmm???

Silly non Americans with thier "people can't enjoy anything they don't" mentality.

That's exactly what the shutzenstaffel used to say. See how well that worked out.

I see the logic you're trying to implement in your comment, but I'm afraid if everyone in this country relied on the police to protect them it would be a DISASTER. If someone is breaking into your home and they're armed. I'm not waiting 10 to 15 minutes for the police to get there no **** that. I'm grabbing my glock and either scare them away or defend myself most likely.
