Gun safety

       Now there are similar subjects, too. For example, one can learn about gun politics and even gun control.

            As a Marine I too know something about gun safety and gun experiences. This idea includes pistol safety, too.

            From my point of view, the "safety" part of the expression is a big deal. Many fellow citizens think of a gun or pistol as a good way to provide safety for themselves and their Family. I understand this, and agree with the sentiment and faith.

            I also believe there is no "accidental" discharge. There is only "negligent" discharge of any gun. I also believe there are many ways to fight others, to include guns. Fortunately there are other lethal ways, too. For example, we had to take away folding sharpened shovels from some Marines during times of great racial problems. Sharpened shovels work well, too, depending on the situation.

            Even where I live gun safety is a problem that affects me. Many of our children where I live can get and shoot guns, but have little "safety" training; and now I even have had bullets flying by my head and the kids laughing at it all. So sometimes, I have to shoot back, and that usually takes care of it until the next batch grows up.

            So for all the gun type people, I agree. But I also wish, hope, and suggest you teach gun safety as best you can.

            I myself have been shot at on more than one occasion, and I did not like the experience, especially now on my own land these days. It's happened to me.
