I have to blame the increase in the number of irresponsible parents. Broken homes and boys being raised without fathers has led to widespread irresponsible behavior by kids. The schools  can do little without solid parents to back them up so they have instead outlawed everything associated with guns and other weapons.  There has also been a decline in the number of hunters. Without a parent who hunts or is familiar with safe gun handling, how can a child learn safe gun handling? Hats off to the Boy Scouts and 4-H Shooting Sports for helping to promote safe gun handling skills among kids.</blockquote>
