HOTD, I have Never seen 1 advert, billboard, commercial, flier, poster, whatever that addresses parents with kids in the house and how to protect them, safe their weapons or keep them from the kids hands, not 1 ever.
That might possibly be because it is such a common sense thing that such ads should not be needed, but then again the tag on your hair dryer that says "Don't use this in the shower" shouldn't be needed either but its been on every hair drier sold in the US for 30 years.
For the most part I am with you, parents that leave their guns laying around for kids to get hold of Should be punished very harshly, I have No problem with that at all, same as shooting the kid yourself.
Extensive background checks, No issue at all, seriously, there should be a Tard database (for want of a better term but you get the idea) that would prevent nuthatches from buying guns. That database doesn't exist because it would interfere with the nuthatches rights. The answer is out there somewhere and its not a single silver bullet, it will be some combination of things. Those things should include better education, more visibility, more control on data and all that BEFORE it comes to making it harder for me to buy, own or sell my stuff.
The problem I had with little o and his "Expanded Background Checks" is all the other bullshit. Enforce the laws we have, if someone sells a gun to an asshole punish them for that, if someone leaves their guns around for kids to get hold of punish them for that and do something to educate the ignorant fuck. Make the education Required before a sale, but nod't make is so onerous on us law abiding citizens. Put the effort where it is needed, not a shotgun approach.
This shouldn't be hard
