[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If securely locked, of course. Gee whiz, guns don't radiate cooties. I wouldn't expect parents to disclose, any more than I would expect them to relay the full details of their burglar alarm system.[/quote] WTH? I’m in the medical field. How many families thought that their guns were securely locked to only have a terrible accident with their child or child’s friend? Routine well child visits now include asking about guns in the house because it’s pretty high on the list of childhood injuries, some lethal.[/quote] Not snark but I'd love to see a study of childhood gun injury with statistics broken down by how the weapon was believed to have been secured. Most of the news reports I have seen of children accidentally shooting a gun were of people finding weapons in purses, in Grandma's drawer, in a closet or under a bed - not accessing a safe that the adult erroneously thought was locked.[/quote]
