[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't object to asking people, but if your kid is old enough for a drop off playdate, they are old enough to understand that you never touch a gun. Are your kids just out there in the world potentially picking up firearms or letting a friend suggest they play with one for fun? You are in better control of your kid's preparation than some random family's gun storage practices. [/quote]

Uhh well yeah, but my kid isn’t going to be the only one in the house for the playdate… :roll: [/quote]

Fair enough--but do you think that the other kid is going to suggest playing with the gun? Or just go get the gun and shoot your kid for fun? Or that the parent is going to shoot them? Or is this a party and you think that the parents will have loaded guns lying around in the dining room near the birthday cake that the kids will pick up and use?

Gun deaths among rich liberals at home just aren't that common (I am a rich liberal, too).

Trying to figure out what scenario you are picturing.[/quote]
