Not sure I see the correlation between you walking while someone is hunting with a suppressor. Hunters are trained to identify their target, before they shoot. How much noise the firearm makes doesn’t seem to have any bearing on how safe you are walking.

Unfortunately, being able to identify a target as being a deer rather than a human is not a requirement for hunting here-and I’m once burned, twice shy.

But let’s go back-and not hijack-the subject of the thread-what on earth is bizarre about encouraging critical thinking in the classroom? I wasn’t aware it was not done any more...

I think the idea is that you hear the supersonic round approaching and duck just in time.

It's not the best idea ever, but it's an idea.
