Thanks for pointing out my mistake. My brain was still processing the absolute shit this is.
Also, where the hell is that shoulder stock going? Is he trying to be a danger to himself as well as others?
Pretty sure I saw that on Mythbusters almost twenty years ago.
Everything old is new again.

“Consistent with qualitative research results, these findings suggest that some parents may believe that modeling responsible firearm use negates the need for secure storage,” the authors concluded. “However, it is unknown whether parents’ modeling responsible behavior is associated with a decreased risk of firearm injury.”

While I agree with the intended message, it seems to me that cars are increasingly (non-)regulated like guns. My last written or practical driving test was 40 years ago. Health requirements = a basic vision test every 6 years or so. More and more cars are rolling around with expired tags. Uninsured motorists are a standard coverage for most auto insurance policies now.
Maybe your state is different, but where I live, “responsible car ownership” is laughably unenforced.
