As far as I'm concerned, teaching a kid how to kill with a gun is tantamount to bringing them up in in a racist home, Branch Davidian compound, a militia, among abusive drug addicts and abusive parents, etc. And it darn sure isn't good for society either. Gun fanciers are blind to effects of their bad habit.
