TN to require mandatory gun training in school as early as pre-kindergarten (no opt out)
https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/politics/2024/04/08/tn-bill-to-require-age-appropriate-gun-training-in-schools-goes-to-lee/73216451007/

A bill to require public schools in Tennessee to teach children age-appropriate firearms safety concepts as early as pre-kindergarten is going to Gov. Bill Lee’s desk after a final Senate vote Thursday.

Members of the Tennessee Senate passed House Bill 2882 in a party-line vote of 24 to 3 on Thursday morning. It passed the House of Representatives in February.

If signed, school children would be taught “age-appropriate and grade-appropriate” concepts about guns beginning in the 2025-26 school year. Proponents of the safety concepts training have likened it to mandatory school fire drills.

“This curriculum would be developed to instruct children on how to properly stay away from a firearm if they happen to see a firearm, and what to do as far as reporting if they find a firearm,” said Sen. Paul Bailey, R-Sparta.

Republicans voted down an amendment Thursday that would have allowed parents to opt their children out of the instruction.

Safe storage of firearms.

Safety relating to firearms.

How to avoid injury if a student finds a firearm.

Never to touch a found firearm.

To immediately notify an adult of the location of a found firearm.

Just saw a story yesterday about a technical adult (18yo) who knew that mom kept a gun under the car seat, went and got it to look cool, then was playing with some younger kids and their Nerf guns, pulled out the real gun, with a nerf gun, pointed them both at a 13 year old, and "accidentally" pulled the trigger on the real gun, not the toy.  Thirteen year old died. 

Hey DUmp flies, imagine if his school had taught him basic gun safety and respect for firearms.

It takes a DUmmie to be outraged at, "teaching children age-appropriate firearms safety concepts as early as pre-kindergarten". Do they really want/need children accidentally shooting themselves or others?

It says something about DU-Denizens that it took 10 Replies before someone posted some degree of sense:

There are tens of millions of US households that both have young children and guns. Why haven't there been millions or 10s of millions of kids accidentally shooting themselves or family members or acquaintances? If young children really "have zero impulse control" and are too "overly emotional" to be taught, why are children taught "Stranger Danger" to prevent sexual abuse and kidnapping?

Let's start with drag queen story hour and just in case add in some bonus time by eliminating the butt plug training in case they run a little over in the gun safety Q&A time.

Did you ask that when placing condoms on cucumbers started taking up class time?

Did you ask that when teaching non-whites to hate whites and teaching whites to hate themselves started taking up class time?

Did you ask that when teaching girls that the boys in their class were all potential rapists started taking up class time?

Did you ask that when teaching how to do do oral and anal sex started taking up class time? When teaching that abortion is good taking up class time?

I learned to shoot my grandfathers M-1911 he brought back from WW1 when I was about 6-7 years old. I never shot anyone and i only have had one time that I needed to use a real gun in self defense at my job after some nut job shot his daughters ex in the bacl of the head at work one night. I was working as a security guard at a store in Omaha helping the night manager close down the registers and we went to get a drink at the deli when the shooter shows up with a .40 cal Glock and if it wasn't for the two of us meeting him in the deli area who knows what would have happened. After we got the gun away from him at gunpoint and had him searched for more weapons I found the body outside with three bullet holes in him. There's a ton  more that went on but the thing is I could have shot him when it looed like he was reaching for something in his sleeves and i had caught movement in my eyes but I didn't shoot. He;s lucky to be alive still today.

Dumbass DUchebags never afraid to show their infinite ignorance about any subject. In fact they are proud of their ignorance and love to demonstrate it.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

The Dems, yet again, showing they are more interested in gun-grabbing than gun safety. Using DU logic, teaching children about fire safety and having fire drills must create a bunch of arsonists.
