 Practice firearm safety and please don’t be like the reporter, it makes me cringe seeing people mishandle a deadly weapon like it’s a toy.

On one hand, it’s hard-to-aim, concussively-deafening, and shoulder-bruising. On the other, it’s a killing machine simple enough for a child to operate

Yeah, it’s pretty clear, whether it’s the reporter shooting or the reporter standing behind him. Taking some random dude off the street and putting a gun in their hands to show how dangerous it is ridiculously flamboyant Like, those things are designed to kill people, the whole product speaks to how dangerous it is by themselves They don’t need to put on a show for the camera to rile up their audience

It’s frustrating, because I’ve shot recreationally several times and even with my limited knowledge of firearms, I am abundantly aware of the potential that lies at the other end of the boom stick, 8mm especially kicks like a mule

Literally, I just don’t like how liberal are always trying to make a show out of everything I see why conservatives treat us left leaning people like dumbasses when our own media is spoonfeeding us

I’ve been labeled a liberal due to my views, but I still believe in the 2nd amendment. I don’t want guns being taken away, I want proper gun safety being taught. Proactive education is the best prevention.

I think if left leaning people can understand harm reduction when it comes to drugs they should be able to understand harm reduction when it comes to guns

Exactly, we need better harm reduction for guns. We shouldn’t restrict access to them, only better educate and remind people of the harmful potential. But to do so, we have a lot of work ahead

That’s a retired general standing behind CNN’s Gary Tuchman in 2018. At any staffed range, an RSO would have shut this right down
