Josh from TX on bringing his kids to Youth Day: “We wanted them to know guns aren’t something to be afraid of. But they’re something you have to respect. They’re not toys.”

This mom & daughter drove 8+ hrs for Youth Day. “We came from the shooting range. I loved doing it. They have stationary targets...moving targets...different kinds of creatures...different kinds of guns. And I shot the whole time because she [mom] doesn’t want to shoot.”pic.twitter.com/Es8RlhYw9x

“I was working at the
@NRA...when she [my daughter] was born. So she has been literally brought up in all of this. She’s learned gun safety since the day we brought her home.”#NRAConvention#NRAAM18#youthdaypic.twitter.com/NRsrhigBPLShow this thread -
I asked 9-year-old Devin what he learned at the NRA’s Youth Day today: “How to load it [a gun] and shoot it.”

Jacob is a pistol instructor. He brought his four and five-year-old sons to NRA’s Youth Day. “I wanted to bring my kids out for the event. It’s huge. There’s so much stuff to look at. Lotta fun.”

Lorelai learned her gun safety from the
@NRA’s cartoon mascot. “Eddie Eagle says, ‘When you see a gun, stop. Don’t touch. Run away. Tell a grown-up.’ I’ve had to use that twice.”#NRAConvention#NRAAM18#youthdaypic.twitter.com/nxf3hzWvZ8Show this thread -
Even though Youth Day took place in its own room, there were plenty of children walking through the main exhibition halls with their parents.
