Heh...There are plenty of ways to accidentally kill someone while
hunting. For example, not being sure of your target. When you hunt you
don't lay down open fire on a moving bush because you think there may be a
deer there. You don't dress in all brown and stick a white hankerchief out
your back pocket. Then for bird hunting, a lot of hunters do it with
partners, therefore it is important to know your firing area limitations.
If anything, the classes help you handle firearms more defensively. Not
only does it teach you proper safety and care for them, but it also
informs you of the uninformed people out there and what could happen (and
probably already has). Never expect anyone else with a gun to know as much
or more as you do when handling them.
