This is what can happen when the NRA's Eddie Eagle is kept out of schools.

At nine his daddy needs to be smacked for not showing him how to handle a gun safely. By nine all my kids were able to field strip and clean most of my firearms.

A bullet discharged, hitting a fence.

Was he aiming at the fence?

“A bullet discharged’

Eddie Eagle needs to speek with the kids, the author, and the Editor.

According to Deputy Police Chief Carson Mansfield, a 9-year-old boy found a handgun outside in the 3200 block of Foxboro Drive.

Ah ha! Finally! I've heard so much about all these guns we have "on the streets", but I've never actually seen a gun on the street. I guess Foxboro Drive must be the street they were talkin' about...

"Stop! Don't touch it! Leave the area and tell an adult."

IIRC, a central Florida school ran the Eddie Eagle program and soon thereafter, an off-duty cop attending his child's performance unknowingly dropped his carry piece in the auditorium. Several students remembered Eddie Eagle's simple advice and followed it to the letter when the found the handgun. Tragedy averted, thanks to this wonderful program from the , gasp, NRA.

Dear children in the United States of America,
All guns are loaded. Period. If you touch the trigger, it WILL go off.
Thank you,

Dear parents in the United States of America,
Please teach your children safe handling practices for both handguns and longarms. If you dont want to do that, then please teach them that all guns are loaded and they WILL fire when the trigger is touched.
Regards,
BtBD
