"The legislature voted overwhelmingly in favor of this move."
Pro: "Safety is something he says he's already stressing with his stepchildren. He supports taking the message of gun safety into schools."
Con: "It's not the wisest thing because, for instance, [my daughter]. She doesn't know what a gun is. But, if she sees gun safety, then now she's curious about it," says Nery Washington, who lives in Harrisonburg.

Re: Firearm Safety Program in Virginia Elementary Schools
I think that's great! It really drives home the best approach to gun safety IMHO.
Funny, I was just reading the section in the 'The Texas Gun Owners Guide' on gun safety around kids and I'm going to see if I can get Eddie Eagle materials from the NRA to work with my grandkids.
