Why would ANY parent of children under 18 be STUPID enough to get involved in the drug trade, even legally selling the paraphernalia?

They know the risk going in when they operate on the fringes. The mindset of people today is even if they break the laws ultimately they will get a slap on the hands at worst....which is generally quite true.

As for their children....well it's apparent were they serious about their welfare they would not be involved with such a "business" in the first place.

Of course, the ends justify the means, don’t they? And if one of the weapons “accidentally” discharged, killing one of the children, well, you’d justify that too, wouldn’t you?

The State must be defended! No atrocity is too great when the State is conducting the Business of the Punishment of Criminals, Comrade!

You might find these words cold comfort when they come for the guns. Or when those gun dealers you depend on find that even though they are selling a "legal" product that the law is no longer a factor, there is only power.

In most parts of this country the Second Amendment is regarded as merely advisory. I hope you don't find this out the hard way.
