[Vision2020] Handgun Clinic

[Janesta]

Vera stated in her column, Larry wanted to remind members of a handgun
clinic. A "reminder" tells me this is not the original information, which I
assume was given at an earlier date

Had The Inkster done her homework... say google Larry Cernik's name, her
article would have been informative. Curious, I googled.

As Paul Harvey coined.. here is "The Rest of the Story"

*laughing*

Perhaps, not 100% the rest of the story, but, you all get my drift.

Larry Cernik is the Idaho state coordinator for Project Appleseed, a
nationwide shooting and history program administered by the Revolutionary
War Veterans Association.

It appears to me, more people are buying handguns for protection.
Gun owners need to be educated on how to keep a gun safe in the home, and
the use of a gun under emotional pressure, among other important
issues. When having conversations with police officers in the past. Every
one of them told me, if my life were at *immediate risk*, I should shoot to
kill.  A shot in the arm or leg, will not stop a meth head (or the like)
from continuing their quest to kill you. A wounded animal is a crazed
animal.

Fish and Game offer gun safety classes, as do The Pink Pistols...

Guns are not going away in the near future, I'd rather gun owners were
educated, than not.

No, I don't own a gun, nor do I plan on purchasing one.
