C++03, sure, but not C++11.
If any C++11 course begins with using raw pointers or arrays, they're doing the students a disservice. There are safe and unsafe parts of the language, the trick is when to use which.
Go, Erlang, etc are all designed to be used for particular purposes. Go may break out of its box because it is a general purpose language, but its core use case is concurrency just like Erlang. I honestly doubt it will because its syntax is ugly, though not as fugly as C++ can be.
I feel like the majority of C++ programmers would support gun ownership, which might say a lot.
