Gun ban groups actively oppose the NRA Eddie Eagle safety course being taught to children. It promotes a non-political gun safety message - “STOP, DON’T TOUCH, TELL AN ADULT”, has been proven to work and has won numerous awards from various government and educational organizations over the years. It does not mention or promote the NRA. Yet gun ban groups habitually oppose it. My only conclusion is these scum want as many kids killed in gun accidents as possible to help push their ban agenda.

As an aside, in a country with 300+million people and 300-400 million firearms, there are less than 100 fatal child gun accidents per year in the 0-14 age range. I don’t remember the exact number - the Nation Safety Council has the stats. That’s astonishingly low and directly due to educational efforts by the NRA and other groups.

Stupid sucker moms agonize about their kids dying in a gun accident or “mass shooting” when they are dozens of times more likely to die in a car accident (~3000 kids per year) as mom flies down the freeway texting on her cell phone.

An interesting stat to go along with that would be how many of those fewer than 100 were 12-13-14 year old gangbangers, or their unintended victims caught in the crossfire.
