Default Saw Stop would have prevented this

I'd a link for this show. How long was the training? A weekend?

Probably not much more. I'm searching for a link to this show. I'll
let you know if I find it.

The main point of the show was that people react differently under
stress. And apparently, to properly handle yourself under those
situations, you have to constantly train for and be prepared for them.


The point is the show is bull****.
You need trained to use tools and weapons, period.
Private firearms owners routinely practice and train more than police officers.
And what would be the big deal of requiring training? Instead of passing
laws to ban weapons, pass laws to insure people who are exercising their
2nd Amendment rights get proper training. I'm all for that.


Better yet, require training and license parents ...



Yeah! I have been reluctant to say it but I firmly believe that the
biggest problem with our society in the U.S. is that in most cases both
parents work and are not available for their kids. Too busy trying to
stay up with the Jones and not paying enough to what really matters, our
children.
