Quote:An 18 year old is old enough to serve the country and vote, therefor they are also old enough to have some common sense (allegedly). Any adult that chooses to obtain and/or carry a firearm without some kind of training is pretty much an idiot. We don't need a nanny state mandating common sense.


I personally am of the belief that proper use and care of firearms should be part of the education system. I personally received my first training in the 5th grade. It was a Hunter's Safety course taught at public school.


Comparing owning a firearm and driving is two totally separate things. Driving is a privilege not a right. Gun ownership is a right.
