How many of these first timers have any concept of firearm safety?

There will be idiots in every crowd, but people of the mindset to purchase a firearm have given some thought to the matter. I hope they will at least go to a range to play with their new toys, if not take an NRA course. It is difficult to avoid range safety. Every time I have been out shooting there is always someone there and they would not allow unsafe people be on the range with them. Personally, I have helped newbies on the range. There is no way I am interacting with anyone unless they are safe from the start. So that is where I begin to help them.

A membership in the NRA should be the next step after purchasing your first firearm. So many of these first timers don’t realize that the same people who put them in a position of needing personal protection are trying to take their new firearms from them.

Your belief that all these new Leftist gun owners are going to find an NRA member to teach them about safety is, well, to put it politely, "amusing". They can't even stand to be in the SAME ROOM with us!

The up side, if you want to call it that, is these goofs BELIEVE that TV doesn't lie to them. After all, how hard can it be to operate a gun?

Any Conservative does it, and it takes them years to get good at it. A Leftist, who is MUCH smarter than any Deplorable, will be able to pick it up in a few days, in the middle of a fire fight.

Recall also, that anyone who actually enlists in the Air Force is too stupid to go to college and study Gender. Army and Marines? Pullease! It's a given that they are retarded. They take that silly Oath thing seriously. How can they POSSIBLY compete with a Social Justice Warrior, who understands the true Meaning of Wokeness?

I saw a movie where a woman picked up an empty gun, for the first time, and killed the Bad Guy, with one shot, at the other end of the alley, a good 200 yards, from the hip, first round, with her eyes squinched shut.

It MUST be true, or they wouldn't be allowed to put it on TV.
