[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand the people that think it's none of anyone's business. There are thousands of accidental gun deaths per year[b] because parents don't keep their guns locked up[/b]. It's a legit concern and completely valid question to ask if you are sending your child over to a friend's house, especially if you don't know the parents that well. [/quote]

We keep our weapons locked up. There will be no accidental deaths. If, God forbid, one of our guns ever causes a death, it will be intentional, that I can assure you.

Therefore, it's none of your business what we have LOCKED UP.[/quote]

Why are you so sure that you and your spouse are perfect? [/quote]

We're certainly not perfect. But our weapons are locked in a safe. [/quote]

How often do you take them out? You don't take them to a range?[/quote]

I’m not the PP, but another gun owner. We take them to the range. To do so, we unlock the door, unlock the safe, unlock trigger locks, and load ammo. The guns get put in a designated carrier to the range. After they are fired, back in the bag, back home, trigger locks, safe, locked door. It’s not like you lose track of guns, wtf?[/quote]

What if there's an emergency in your house or in the neighborhood during unlocking, transport, or locking and you get distracted? 
People lose track of guns all the time. Follow TSA on instagram.

Are you trying to say there are never accidents with guns in this country? [/quote]

Then I’d stuff them back in the safe or simply run out because the room’s door locks automatically. What kind of emergency is going to happen during transport to the gun range that would put my friends’ kids at risk?? In any case, during transport, they are still locked and not fireable. [/quote]
