    No, they don't. It's a sport. It's in the Olympics.

    Carrying rifles in cases to the range, putting on your protective gear and learning all the safety procedures, then learning proper stances and target shooting teaches respect for guns.

    This is coming from someone who took shooting sports through 4-H starting at like 10, and doesn't own a single gun today. It really is like archery or any other sport. I enjoy archery more and went on to be a 4-H archery instructor for a while.
