The Four Rules of basic gun safety can be distilled down to these four written by Colonel Jeff Cooper:
- All guns are always loaded.
- Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
- Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
- Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.
I’d like to add one more, keep your eyes open and look at your target:

Ten words: GITMO, American Civil Liberties Union, CIA, Mohammed, SEPT 11th, Prison. Go here for the details. . .
