    Just pointing down is incredibly dangerous. A projectile ricocheting off the floor/ground will do more damage than a projectile falling from the sky at just terminal velocity.

    Point in a safe direction, and that direction changes constantly. Be aware, think safe and keep looking to where your firearm is pointed.

    If safety can be ingrained into the mindset of those starting off shooting that's certainly a good thing.
