I've handled an AK47 and I've had a lot of responsible fun with all these guns. Every single person (children & dogs included) held to the rules and behaved and have for the last five years my in laws have set this up. This is why responsible gun owners want the big toys.
LOL can't you find any other family activities? I mean numbers are numbers and how many thousands of people have died in US just in 2017 from gun violence?
Here's a nice article that explains how other countries dealt with this problem in this kind of situation

I mean even one of the greatest American heroes, Wyatt Earp, enforced gun control in Tombstone.
But it all goes on and on as if American mentality is embodied in Kane character portrayed in the movie "Citizen Kane" - especially that scene when a reporter tells Kane, who was just caught in an adultery "If it was anybody else, I'd say what's going to happen to you would be a lesson to you. Only you're going to need more than one lesson. And you're going to get more than one lesson." -but the show must go on, right?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
