Their BeSMART training addressed all of this, including unintentional (not accidental) shootings. Live fire and marksmanship training will do NOTHING to prevent kids from accessing unsecured guns. They are selling a class on how to BUY a gun 👇🏻.
The mere PRESENCE of a gun in the home increases the risk of suicide by 300%, and the leading FORMER gun violence prevention org is going to train you on how to purchase a gun.

We fought with the school for 3 fucking years before we could get in front of the IEP evaluator, because Principles make it their lives mission to quash these requests and make your life miserable for pursuing it. It fucking sucks.
