[quote=Anonymous]"My boys have been shooting since they were about that age. They all got their first rifles at about eight or nine. I come from a family that hunts for food. My boys are excellent shots. They are educated about guns and gun safety. They have passed numerous gun safety courses. I guarantee you that they are MUCH less likely to be killed in a gun accident than any of your city kids. They would be the ones to keep your kids from shooting themselves if they accidently found a gun. Seriously. Everyone does not live like you sheltered D.C. city people. Kids in more rural areas learn to handle guns. It really is ok." I'm sure what you say about your children is true. I know there are many families like yours. But there are many people who have no business handling firearms, and there's nothing to stop them from doing so. And there are rarely charges filed for accidents due to negligence. The concern with America's relationship with guns is warranted. [/quote]
