Further to the discussion going on at http://www.indiansforguns.com/viewtopic ... 14&t=17238 - I couldn't resist posting the following video here (courtesy captrakshitsharma).

Alyssa Gutierrez bravely defended her home and her life with her Mom's rifle. She was not going to end up, if she could help it, another victim of criminal violence. She first tried to hide from the criminal intruders, but when they discovered her, she ran quickly to a bedroom and retrieved her Mom's little pink single shot bolt action .22 caliber rifle to defend her home and life.

"My heart kept pounding and pounding" said brave little Alyssa. After she loaded the rifle she checked the bathroom and the living room to make sure that they were clear of the thugs. She then went to her Mothers closet with her loaded rifle in hand to call 9-11. "I was planning, if they came right next to me, I would shoot them," said Alyssa.

Luckily, for the slime ball intruders, they had already made their getaway out the back door of the house. But as bad luck would have it for the degenerate's, an off duty police officer who was driving by saw them jumping the fence and arrested them on the spot. So all ended well, the bottom dwellers were taken away thanks to the bravery of Alyssa Gutierrez.

So, should you teach your child how to responsibly handle a firearm & how to use it effectively?

Cheers!

Children must be taught and educated on firearm safety and handling. Parent should teach them carefully to understand the general working and respect the firearm and also stress upon the gravity of situation it could land them in if they treat the guns at home as toys. Training them and inculcating good/safe firearm handling habits is a life saving skill. Adult supervised handling will make the child a responsible gun owning citizen in the future. That said know and understand the temperament and mental status of the child at home and keep the accessibility of arms and ammo strictly restricted and carefully monitored.
Remember that "Safety is in Education and Cognitive Identification of Risks. Once a Hazard is identified the mind will evolve and be able to Consciously Mitigate the Associated Risk.

Refuse to be a victim. A gun in hand is better than a hundred with the cops.

So the much derided .22 is not such an ineffective weapon after all.

All the best.
