A mass shooting in Maine, perpetrated by an Army reservist, has reignited the debate over red-flag laws and the presence of firearms in the hands of the mentally ill.

Meanwhile, a federal program, the National 4-H Shooting Sports Program, funded by the NRA and gun manufacturing lobby, is training 500,000 children annually as young as 8 years old in the sport of shooting.

While California’s 4-H program has severed its ties with the NRA, the federal program continues to receive funding, raising concerns about the influence of the gun lobby on youth.
