Project Childsafe [View all]

As prep for discussing this program, one that I discovered here, with MDA I called my local police department to see how the program worked and what was available in the way of safety devices.

What a surprise! The LEOs are not participating in the program anymore. Seems that promises were made but not kept. Safety devices were not delivered as promised and when they were they were so substandard that they were considered worse than nothing. The opinion of the local guys was that something so junky as what they saw might instill false security in parents and foreclose them getting something that might actually work.

I looked further into the situation, doing searches on Project Childsafe and following leads from there and low and behold, the program was never funded by the gun industry at all! It was funded by grants from the Federal Government! And when the funds began to dry up due to failure to produce results the NSSF failed to fill in the gaps with their own money!

So, like Eddie Eagle it seems that Project Childsafe is nothing more than bullshit covering the misdeeds of the gun industry. A "feel good" project if you would.

Evil, evil motherfuckers, pretending to be the good guys.

Glad I did the up-front work and saved myself the embarrassment of promoting a piece of shit propaganda.
