Unironically yes. Kids are dumb as shit but if we as a society insist on guns being around, the least we can do is reduce the harm by giving them the education they need to be around guns safely.

I agree with that statement, but that dumbass would still have a hole in his head. Quality drivers education lowers collision rates, but reckless kids still kill in cars everyday.
I’m not here to debate what would have happened, I am just disappointed that the immediate reaction to a youth’s tragic death is guffawing.
I hate cars too and I think they shouldn’t be around either. But as long as they are I am going to insist that kids get drivers ed training and that that training is constantly improved upon. I am being quite consistent here.
lol, we’re commenting on each other’s speculations- impressive observation.
But yeah- super disappointing people’s empathy doesn’t always extend to those that recklessly put others in danger and kill themselves. Super sad…
But the good news is that we actually agree on the value of gun safety training. Turns out we can agree on the substance of gun policy while disagreeing that people that shoot themselves in the head are idiots!

You snarked your way into being correct.

Objection, speculation.

🤝 i guess lol
i also agree that all kids are idiots. never stated otherwise. :) take care
Fortunately it’s a wide spectrum and most 17 year olds aren’t nearly as idiotic as this Darwin award contender.
