It's Called: Normalization of Deviance

[L84CABO]

Good reminder...

Whenever we see something risky that doesn’t lead to a catastrophic result, we become more tolerant of the risk. Each time we lower a standard but nothing bad happens, we become more likely to accept that lowered standard and more open to lowering the standard again.

We've all heard it, we've all seen it, we've all experienced it. But this puts a actual articulatable name to it, and in so doing makes it more real for all.

No need to post the vid of the DEA clown is there?

Thanx for posting

This is a great reminder to never deviate from established safety protocols.

What does the normalization of deviance have to do with
firearms instruction and range safety?

Short answer: everything.

Every time we pick up a firearm and every time we walk onto the range,
we are building a record of behavioral expectations for ourselves.

Every time we deviate from our established standard and nothing bad
happens, we become more likely to behave the same way again in the future.

Thanks for posting, L84CABO....
