Well, if you aren't taught basic gun etiquette / safety growing up, you have to learn on your own. And if you are a (usually) early 20-something and you want to learn, you usually don't ask or take lessons... This is a downside of households not teaching it - I'm not saying you have to have guns in your house! I'm just saying it would be nice if people taught their kids basics and there was less fear mongering.

Just my 2 cents and YMMV!! smile
