GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?

[sally]

One thing that I think could help is if those on the pro-gun side would consider things like advocating the merits of 5 year olds handling guns. A lot of us middle grounders simply tune them out at that point because it's just too insulting to ones intelligence. If guns are that big a part of your life and you wanna take the risk or honestly believe that there is no risk, fine. But, suggesting that's a reasonable view that should be respected by society in general (which is the point of most public discussion/debate about controls and laws) is plain ignorant. IMO.

I'm also middle ground on the gun debate, but not when it comes to babies handling guns. Not only do they allow them to handle guns, both SF and FU have said that they have left their loaded weapons accessible to their children and grandchildren relying on the fact that they taught them gun safety therefore they'll never touch an unattended gun. That's completely absurd and irresponsible. And that's not an opinion, it's a fact.
