Thread: Teaching kids about hunting and firearms

There's a Slovak girl I follow on Instagram, mainly because she breeds and hunts dogs, but being easy on the eye has probably got something to do with it also.
She's involved in a program where they visit schools and teach kids about firearms safety and where their food comes from.
Imagine trying to get something like this across the line in New Zealandistan... I know which country probably has a greater proportion of well balanced individuals..

Over here a kindergarten baited a Roe Deer untill hunting season.One of the teachers shot it and they all ate it.

My daughter's kindy has a boat they go out in and set nets to catch fish for lunch.

I don’t think us living in a more western based culture helps the situation.
Also Slovakia would have a had compulsory military service up until relatively recently making people more comfortable with firearms.
I was pleasantly surprised when I excused my 10 yo from class last week for an overnight hunting trip the teacher was wrapt. Said he’d learn a lot more out there than in a few weeks in the classroom.
Clearly he’s not seen me hunt but the sentiment was nice I thought.

Good to see she knows quality :-)
Its beautiful part of the World - as Trump and some of us well know

Meanwhile in NZ the Army are no longer allowed to bring a firearm into the classroom when talking to the kids in case it offends some snowflakes. FFS. By my observation kids LOVE having the opportunity to see these things up close and getting to hold them... girls and boys alike. It's a traversty.

On the plus side whenever my kids have had to miss school because of a hunting competition or extended hunting trip the feedback I've received from the teachers has always been positive and more usually curiosity as well.

I'm involved with a school that does a mentoring program based around hunting, he take 4 - 6 kids a year, generally boys due to all the complications ....teach them about guns shoot guns and go and shoot a deer each.

Have put 3+ kids though now

Remember that time the nzdf was at a school and a child handled one of the firearms......... Parents went full rage mode.

Yeah it’s unlikely you would get that over the line in an urban NZ school. A rural school might be a different story.

I remember reading a story a few months ago written by a Herald columnist, some tool called John Roughan. He was wanking on about how fantastic the new firearms legislation was, and how he is uncomfortable with private firearms ownership and would feel “creeped out” if he knew that a neighbour possessed firearms. These are the sort of narrow minded dipshits that walk among us

I took the 30/30 bolt action .22 single break open 12ga and dads old 303 to school on the school bus and back again for my topic talk when 12....country school some 36 years ago...they stayed in principals office before and after talk......

Next time you are confronted by a wanker snowflake who thinks out loud like that, ask them just which language they think they are conversing with you in? Then tell them its 'cause of citizens/soldiers like those, that in their teens or 20s sacrificed their comfortable surroundings and prevented said snowflake from conversing with you in German or Japanese!

I went on an instastalk for slovak hunting girls. Some cracking bods over that way and the clincher is they also have pictures of them mowing the lawn! Too bad I'm already married, Any single dudes here should up sticks to Slovakia.
