That irrelevant article talks about children in war torn countries in Africa, not the United States which is the country of subject here.

Irrelevant articles are your MO.
Kids with guns is not normal. Kids with guns is dangerous and callous.
Insane people want to see kids with guns.

You still haven't explained to me how training Adam Lanza to aim and shoot at an even younger age would have made him safer to the public. I'm excited to see how what kinds of contortions you'll have to go through to come up with a non-laughable answer for that one...stretch first so you don't pull a muscle.

Do you believe kids at a early age should be taught to learn to hunt wild game and practice conservation?

Period.
It's not a difficult concept.

Only insane people think kids should have guns.

Teaching kids how to shoot makes them less likely to go off and shoot others how, exactly?? The issue has nothing to do with knowing how to handle, clean, respect guns. It's the fact that guns are so ubiquitous.

Yeah, it would be a lot like the stupidity of teaching sex education. We know if we don't they'll abstain until their 26 and married.
