    Disagree.
    Education is safety.

    People not knowing how to store and handle firearms are a huge liability.
    Not training as in “how to put 5 center mass in 5 seconds”.
    But training about how kids get hold of guns, correct storage, correct safeties, correct loading, correct holding.
    Even things like how to defuse situations, how to identify actual threats, stuff like that.

    I remember when i was a kid, i went to a police precinct and got to play on their training simulator. I completely missed the fact there was a gun on the floor and died to someone i didnt see, instead of the obviously hostile person i was “talking” to.
    Training like that, except maybe less “police” oriented.
