[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of this.  You can do nothing about someone who chooses to lie about potentially putting your child's well being at risk ([b]whether it's lying about access to firearms in their house, or lying about whether they'd serve teens alcohol[/b]).  But as a nation the conversation about gun safety needs to happen.  It becomes normalized as we all ask and answer one another honestly.[/quote]

You really twisted that up.  I'm not going to lie to you about the gun in my home and then let the kids play with it!  [b]I'm going to lie to you because it is stored securely and safely, I am trained in its appropriate storage and use, my children don't know it is in the house, and it presents absolutely no risk to your children or mine.[/b]  Your comparison to "lying about whether they'd serve teens alcohol" is not even in the same ballpark.  I'm not going to let your kid play with my gun.[/quote]

The fact that you'd rather lie than say exactly this to whomever asks makes me wonder what other totally normal things you'd lie about. I don't want my kid anywhere near you and it has nothing to do with your gun. [/quote]
