The OP states the questionable supposition that BP firearms are generally treated less safely than modern firearms. If a person is careless with modern guns they’ll probably treat BP firearms the same way. I’ve never seen anyone who is careful with modern guns but is careless with a BP piece. The consciousness seems to be readily transferable for most people, even new shooters. A person who is sloppy with one type will probably be careless with both. I’ve never met anyone who considered BP firearms to be toys who did not treat all guns as playthings.

Gotta agree with this, even though it bums me out
Let's not refer to Cap N Ball revolvers, or any firearms we enjoy, as Weapons of War. Because they very clearly are not.
This drives me nuts! All the jackholes calling TOOLS, weapons is just plain ignorant. I AM THE WEAPON, not an inanimate object. I can use lots of things to bring harm to people, but I don't. I don't know what the root cause is, but I wish people would cut it out, they're helping the psychos cause
