“Do not lose time on daily trivialities. Do not dwell on petty detail. For all of these things melt away and drift apart within the obscure traffic of time. Live well and live broadly. You are alive and living now. Now is the envy of all of the dead.” ~ Emily3, World of Tomorrow
Words to live by.
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.
I spent my high school years in in the "sticks" south east of Buffalo; small town called Holland. I started hunting when I was 12 or 13(maybe younger), which wasn't really legal, but, whatever. To the subject at hand, I don't think its a bad thing teaching gun safety at school. In high school, when hunting season started, deer season specifically, school was closed for a few days because so many of the guys would disappear. For all of deer season you could see in most, if not all, of the trucks in the high school parking lot, students and teachers, gun racks with shotguns, bows, in some rare cases a .306 or a .22. I never thought much of it. Having a gun on me through almost all of the winter was as common as going to school, driving my car, etc. I never did, or felt the need to, take a course in gun safety. All of the men in my family are hunters so growing up I was regularly exposed to hunting and guns; knowledge came naturally.
I suspect, based on what little I know of Idaho(they are an open carry state I believe), gun ownership and hunting is probably pretty common up there and as such knowledge of and safe use of guns develops naturally for them as it did for me. Having a supplemental option, courses is school, on gun safety wouldn't hurt though in my opinion. I know I would have signed up for it.
I do actually agree with you completely on the relative ease of finding outside courses for gun safety; mine was a poor comparison, obviously. But regardless, in states with low graduation rates like this one, I think offering courses that may actually interest some students who might be on the verge of dropping out for a trade school or something could help change that. They would get far more education in the long run if their electives are interesting enough to them to keep them going through their primary courses. I'm not saying that will happen, because I simply don't know; but what if?
Why not? If you want a society where lots of people are armed, best ensure they know and respect their weapons.
At least we're actually helping refugees, unlike you, who constantly keeps screwing the world /destabilising it because 'murica hurr durr. Let's not forget it was America who destabilised the middle east shall we? basically your fault what's happening in Europe right now.
Ahh America, with it's ego of "Being the best in the world" we had that mentality once, we (the UK) owned most of the world at one point, look what happened to us, do you think it's going to end any differently for you? how naive are you.
Yes, by shoving them somewhere out of sight and reminding them that they'll never be real Europeans! It's more important to appear compassionate than actually be compassionate.
See, that's the best part about the whole thing! But we wouldn't want to take all the credit. Don't forget the pants-on-head-retarded immigration policies and the unwillingness of socially inept Europeans to earnestly accept brown people into their culture.Basically your fault what's happening in Europe right now.

I think basic gun safety should be required for everyone. I'm not talking about teaching people to shoot or be snipers. I am talking about teaching people to be able to handle the things properly without killing someone behind them or shooting their foot off.
As long as it isn't a required class, then fine.
