120. How could I POSSIBLY misunderstand such clear positions?
YES. I have repeatedly said in this forum (and if you're too lazy to look, it's no one's problem but your own) that I recommend SAFE/SECURE STORAGE LEGISLATION.

How you could POSSIBLY have not grasped this after reading my earlier posts in this thread alone ... it hardly bears thinking about.


I don't know how I could POSSIBLY have missed that. Especially when you make statements like:

I still won't think that legislation will prevent children being killed with firearms ... and guess what??? I have never said it would, and I certainly didn't say it would in the post of mine you responded to, so dog knows why you said this particular silly thing ... but maybe you'll have fun.


Ok, now that we're talking about SAFE/SECURE STORAGE LEGISLATION, let's talk about how that would work. I think that trigger-locks, gun safes, etc. are certainly good ideas to encourage as public policy, but I'm not at all sure about mandating them through legislation. I think as a practical matter, such legislation would be nearly unenforceable without periodic home inspections, and I'm not thrilled at all with that prospect.


What do you think useful SAFE/SECURE STORAGE LEGISLATION would look like?
