Safe driving classes are offered through most high schools, because teens sometimes younger than 16 may legally drive, so why don't we offer (mandate would be better) firearm training in the schools, so that upon graduation, our youngest adult citizens understand:
- just how dangerous a firearm can be.
- how to use a firearm safely.
- how to use a firearm appropriately.
- when a firearm can be used lawfully in defense of self and family.
The Right to Keep and Bear Arms exists... why don't we make training ubiquitous, so that all of our citizens "know" the rules? |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
