> No matter what you do, accidents will happen.

This is an objectively false statement. There are just four simple safety rules that prevent all unintentional gun injuries, _even if you violate some of the rules some of the time_.

> I don’t think Youtube is the place to look for education

I'm in 30s and have learned probably about as much from Youtube as I did from my entire schooling.

Rules don’t prevent accidents. Trying your best to always follow the rules helps to prevent accidents.

I agree with GP: where guns exist and humans interact with them, accidents will occasionally happen.

Humans are imperfect. Some people who know the four rules that you are referring to and who try their best to always follow them will still experience accidents.

I own multiple guns, including a machine gun. No matter what I do, there is risk inherent in my decision to be a gun owner.
