Another Gun Thread

[LastPoet]

law abiding gun owners do not need to betold. the burden of gun ownership weighs heavily on people's minds when ever they leave their homes or have company over or even worse kids. there is no peace for a lawful gun owner if their guns are not secured. and those are the people a propaganda campaign would most directly influence. It is the monsters who do not care or seek guns to do ill that make it unsafe for everyone else. most of them have guns illegally now, so what are more laws going to do? what will a propaganda campaign do?

I think it's important to distinguished between 'law abiding gun owner' and 'responsible gun owner'.  One can be lawful and still be irresponsible
I linked to a story a little over a month ago in which a woman in the US left a handgun accessible to a four year old who shot and killed his six year old sister.  The mum faced no charges.

My almost 3 year old is one of a curious mind. Keeping bleach, assorted torture devices, etc out of reach is a pain as it is. My grandpa gave me his 12 gauge shotgun, horizontal paired barrels. I wouldn't pass the psych exam anyway. So I gave it away to be destroyed, by the cops so they say. I have a galvanized 3/4 inch pipe under my pillow. SO if you walk into my home and me being aware, the pipe works better.
