changing the rules

I picked this up online, from an erstwhile acquaintance of mine.

The Four Laws of Gun Safety

1. All firearms are loaded. Always.

2. Never point a firearm at anything you are not willing to destroy.

3. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.

4. Be sure of your target and what is behind it.



It seems to me that this cannot possibly be all the rules of gun safety. How about this:

RULE 5 You shall not shoot your relatives. Especially your kids.

RULE 6 You shall not shoot other drivers even if they deserve it. After all, most drivers are dumb and mentally disturbed just like you.

RULE 7 You shall not shoot stop sings and other roadside guides.

RULE 8 You shall not shoot insulators out of power poles.

RULE 9 You shall not shoot the small critters of the countryside just to watch them blow up.


Any of you readers like to add to this list?

And JERRY sends this visual aid for an example of poor parenting, and really bad gun safety behavior.
