6 year old shoots his grandfather.......lockup your guns.

Guns for the general public - not a good idea (i'm not from the US.....)

Loaded guns left lying about - hideously stoopid idea
 
Let me be the first to put it bluntly:

Not from the US? No wonder you don't know what you're talking about.

There's no such thing as a good gun law.

Exactly. It's called STUPID PEOPLE DO STUPID THINGS. I don't think you see responsible people who lock up their guns get their heads blown off.

I agree with responsible gun ownership etc, The reason I dont have a problem with some gun laws it that yes there are stupid people out there, and accidents happen sometime. With guns you dont tend to walk away.
 
Guns are the ultimate democratic ideal, the grand leveler, giving absolute power to the weak and ignorant. Such a shame that these tools can end up in such timid and fearful hands. Keep guns where they're needed... on the farms and in the lodge.
 
There is a really easy solution to keeping guns safe: KEEP THE AMMO AND THE GUNS SEPERATE AND BOTH HIDDEN. My guns, and my ammo aren't even in the same room. I don't have a gun for protection since if I needed to grab it quickly, it'd already be too late to pull it out.

Think about it:
You don't keep the key in the car.
You teach your kids not to play with knives at an early age.
You put a fence around pools.

So you have three choices:
#1: don't keep guns loaded and ready to fire
#2: teach your kids how to respect the firearm and treat it properly
#3: lock it up

People manage to do all three with different items, guns aren't that different. Doing more than one of those three isn't a bad choice either.

Count me in. 🙂

All I have right now is a little .22 Beretta (hey, I've only been 21 for 5 months), but I have a whole brick of CCI Velocitor ammo.

Congratulations. With your mentality, the following incidents would have turned out far worse.

A Norristown, Pennsylvania, woman was walking home when she was viciously attacked by two pit bulls. Hearing the woman's screams, Ernest C. Webb came to the rescue with his .380 cal. pistol after first calling 911. When one of the dogs turned on him, he shot it, hitting it in the leg. Both dogs ran off. The dogs are thought to belong to drug dealers who use them for protection and enforcement in the high-crime neighborhood. (The Times Herald, Norristown, PA, 5/24/97)

After seeing heavy police activity in his neighborhood and hearing that two suspects were being pursued, Tom Samonek of Zephyrhills, Florida, loaded his Colt pistol and decided to inspect a barn and abandoned mobile home on his property. Returning home, he and his wife found the fugitives in their house. Samonek ordered the pair to lie on the floor and held them until police arrived. They were wanted in conjunction with a car theft and a two-county car chase. It was the third time in as many years Samonek has used his firearm to subdue an attacker without firing a shot. (The Times, Pasco, FL, 6/10/97)

Out of kindness, 84 year-old E.H. Brown of Savannah, Georgia, allowed a stranger to use his telephone one Thursday afternoon. The elderly homeowner became suspicious, however, when the man asked to use the bathroom just as another man came up onto the deck of the house. When one of the intruders knocked down Brown's 78 year-old wife, Brown, who had armed himself with a.38-cal. revolver, pointed and fired. One man fled, and Brown held the other one until police arrived. "He did a hell of a job," said a local police lieutenant of Brown's heroic actions. (Savannah Morning News, Savannah, GA, 11/6/98)

Residents of a Burnsville, Minnesota, house were rocked awake shortly after I a.m. by a man who repeatedly rang the front door bell and then kicked in the door and came inside. After a male resident armed himself and closed the bedroom door, the man pushed it open and punched the resident in the nose. As the two wrestled, the intruder proclaimed, "I don't care if I die." Soon he was going after the female resident of the house. The attacker began choking her and then pushed her head through a closed window, breaking out the glass. When her tormentor came at the woman again, the male resident fired a shot, hitting the intruder in the leg. The wounded home-invader left to seek help at a hospital where he was arrested and charged with first-degree burglary. (Burnsvillel Lakeville Sun-Current, Bloomington, MN, 12/9/98)

In my country it should get a lot harder to own guns really soon, but a crossbow doesn't require any permission...
There are so many retarded people with guns around these days. Cops have to pass "strict" psychological tests to get a firearm, yet every week, one or two kills someone innocent or frags himself. Rules should make it harder to get guns legally.
Two "collectors" got busted last week for owning unauthorised firearms: an arsenal of rifles, guns, grenades, mines, handguns and ammo were found at their residences. One of them was found because a grenade exploded in his hand. Now that's just great.
 
If I had a child that psycho he would play all day in his room with stuffed animals and padded walls. He wouldn't be left alone with a loaded gun and his grandfather.
