Blind Kids Taught to Shoot Rifles

[Omicron]

Hey, I'm pro-gun, NRA all the way, but WTF is up with this nonsense? This is beyond ridiculous. Looks like more of a SNL skit than anything. What rocket scientist came up with that idea?
<sheesh>

[I seen it all now]

Do they get drive-by lessons too?

OUTSTANDING!! 33 years ago, when I was 10 years old I went to the same type of camp. In California no less!! I was blind then.(Now I've had some surgeries and I see well enough to drive.) I suppose the reason this story was selected to run is for shock value, because "blind kids are shooting guns" makes people scared. I can GUARANTEE you this we done in a perfectly safe manner, with 1-on-1 control of every gun, as it was in my day. In addition, blindness is most often not 100%, as in my case. No worries people, only good fun and common sense here, no insanity. Cheers.--Upton

I know it's fun to shoot guns and I'm assuming the thrill is not lost on blind kids, but isn't it a little silly when they can't see what they're shooting?

They're blind, not retarded. The amount of intolerance and ignorance toward the blind, or "visually impaired" here is astounding.

As long as these kids can follow directions and are properly supervised, let them experience as much of life as they can.

That is Utah.

You got crazy, alcohol hiding Mormons wearing magical, sin-proof underwear who (if left to their own devices) marry multiple underage girls, and are willing to hand a loaded gun to a blind kid.

Southpark had it right
