New Gun Regulations In The US Would Be Really, Really Stupid

How responsible was threatening to shoot me?

 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.

The CAP laws are lazy - more than dumb.

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.
