 You are not the voice of reason in this debate though you like to present yourself as such.

You're right. After decades of dealing with gun nuts, mostly my relatives, I'm not inclined to be nice any more.

And you realize that you were never in any danger, right? Right?

Probably not.

It' s easy to lock guns up. 

It' s hard to teach kids not to touch them.- but it obviously can be done. Every generation that came before the CAP laws since the invention of firearms survived - without having firearm death being a significant percentage of childhood death.

Yeah, when the parents are smart enough to teach their kids not to touch the guns. And in some fantasy land the kids will never ever  mess with the guns that AREN'T SAFELY STORED EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE CHILDREN IN THE HOUSE WHO CAN ACCESS THEM.

So, after the fact you can say the threat wasn't real and that makes it okay.

Of course you are aren't a big enough person to admit it was wrong...but at least you finally acknowledge the threat.

You are an angry, bitter old man who is way too impressed with his supposed accomplishments...you gonna blame the family on not being able to say you were wrong?

NAH...that's not part of your superhero narrative.

Yeah, says the good-guy-with-a-gun fantasist. LOL

I know you said you wouldn' t cross the street to piss on me if I were on fire.

But buddy - I' d sure cross the street to piss on you, if you were on fire.

Hey - even if you weren' t on fire!

You are soooo tough.

CDC study - 6 years.

Which is usually more accurate? A larger or smaller study group?

The 2018 study comes with numbers. Are we really quibbling over how many dead kids, as a percent, we need to conclude that a deadly firearm shouldn't be in their environment?

I'm gonna go with a pretty obvious number. . . zero. Zero is the right number of kids who should die due to accidental or deliberate firing of a gun.

I mean. . . guns are a tool designed to put a hole in people. Kids are people, and an upsetting number of them got holes put through their little bodies last year. This is is order to defend against. . . what, exactly? What number of people do you believe had their lives saved by guns last year?

Obstreperous Loutish Belligerent will do nothing but quibble. He has nothing else. Not the gun culture's best spokescritter.
