Actually, in GA and many other southern states, gun safety is a priority and taught in many schools. I'm from MA but moved south after the blizzard of '78. I took a gun safety course in the early '70's and was one of a very few in the state with a handgun permit.

My son, as a sophomore in a southern prep school, took gun safety as a required course. Perhaps if those who make fun of the South did the same, there would be fewer accidents. I'd rather go hunting with a trained southerner than an untrained northerner.
