Everyone has a body. Not everyone is going to own a gun. Health ed, therefore, should be taught to all. Whereas gun safety should be an elective.Gun safety is as important as sex ed in a free society. Target practice could be an elective and Hogan's Alley should be an inter-district sport in high school.
Ah... then I agree that it would be a nice competition between schools that choose to have a team. You never know. The high school in your neighborhood could produce the next gold medalist at the next Olympics.Everyone has a body and the right to protect their body, like with condoms. You have the right to protect your body from rape and assault or worse.
Maybe if people were taught how to properly operate a fire arm, like condoms, they might better safely utilize this tool to protect their body.
Yeah, Hogan's is like target practice or qualifying your skills with particular weapon.
What you attempted to do is discount the proper use of condoms and education in the reduction of HIV/AIDS in Africa and the world and replace it by quoting someone who thinks that circumcision and reducing sex-partners alone saved all those people...when nothing could be further from the truth. The truth is that 800,000 people died because of a lack of education about HIV/AIDS, what causes it, how to avoid it and how to treat it ... and most of those got HIV/AIDS because they refused to use condoms because one pissant line in the Bible says that 'spilling one's seed' is EVIL.
Better to die than spill one's seed, eh.
Condom failure rate is less than 1.2% - and it involved breakage..mostly because people don't use'em properly. Either reusing them, putting them on too late, ripping the things when cutting through the package or with nails while rolling them on etc etc... mostly it's when people don't bother to stop once they realize that something's wrong with the condom. Mechanically, they're 100% effective.... it takes human nature to fuck up.
Kinka like abstinence being 100% effective...until it isn't when it become 0% effective vs. AIDS, STDs and unwanted pregnancy.
