planeflyer21 Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 Bottom right hand corner, "Should children be allowed to shoot with adult supervision?" http://edition.cnn.com/index.html?mobile=0
StainTrain Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 Done We're losing Logic and Common Sense will always lose on CNN's website.
AdamO Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) Done.. OTOH ask me if I give two sh!ts and a fvck what a stupid a$$ poll from Communist News Network tells me what I should think. Way I see it if the SHTF, my kids win! Edited September 1, 2014 by AdamO
AdamO Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) If the SHTF, nobody wins.Ok, this is true. My failed attempt at humor. Either way I feel like if you're going to own firearms then teaching your kids how to handle them properly with respect and safety is paramount. And ONLY under close adult supervision. The younger the better. And that has nothing to do with placing a full rock-n-roll Uzi in their hands. Edited September 1, 2014 by AdamO

planeflyer21 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Report Posted September 1, 2014 If the people at CNN could think, they would realize...
pokey Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) With no adult supervision, what are you to do, hand them a gun and tell them to figure it out! That would be about as irresponsible Anderson Copper teaching journalism, In my opinion. Edited September 2, 2014 by pokey
DNP Posted September 2, 2014 Report Posted September 2, 2014 Gotta wait til they're adults. Then a government firearms instructor(similar to a TSA agent) can train them at a two hour course...which interestingly enough is four times longer than it took to become a government firearms instructor.
StainTrain Posted September 2, 2014 Report Posted September 2, 2014 Keep at it, boys.....CNN will remove it before they post something that doesn't fit their agenda. Maybe CNN is going under. They are doing buyouts and downsizing.
98Z5V Posted September 2, 2014 Report Posted September 2, 2014 Still 54 No, 46 yes, with 938 votes. Taught my kid on a CO2 pellet pistol into an archery target block when he was 6 or 7. He was shooting ARs around 10~11 years old.
392heminut Posted September 2, 2014 Report Posted September 2, 2014 I had my youngest shooting a 1911 when he was 7 and he shot his first IPSC match with a 1911 at 10. I started him out shooting the 1911 seated and only one round in the gun, then we progressed to two rounds and so on. Handing a full auto Uzi to a nine year old with no confirmed training is just plain stupid!
survivalshop Posted September 2, 2014 Report Posted September 2, 2014 Yes, it didn't change when I voted ? Its fixed.
Rsquared Posted September 3, 2014 Report Posted September 3, 2014 Done. Shows 50/50 right now with 1357 votes. 682=no, 675=yes
SPWhite Posted September 22, 2014 Report Posted September 22, 2014 I started my son shooting when he was 5. He started with a 22 rifle and a 22 pistol. Then he moved up to my 45. 1 round at first then 2 and worked his way up to a full magazine. And when I got a new gun we sat down and I showed it to him. We took it apart and put it back together. Then he wasn't courious about it any more. He is 20 now and is a better shot than me. I reckon I thought him too well.
Microgunner Posted September 22, 2014 Report Posted September 22, 2014 It's good to pass the passion along.
