An elderly lady traveling by air declared that she had a .38 special revolver. The clerk told her that that she could have to hand it over, and it would be returned to her upon completing the trip. She reached in her purse, and pulled it out, placing it on the counter.
The clerk said "It is loaded. Please unload it."
She says "Young man, when I want to unload it, I will pull the trigger!".
He was pleased, even unctiously enthusiastic, to unload it himself, placed it into a small box, and arranged for it to be delivered to her on the other end.
If anyone has any firearms that have a tendency to kill people, I volunteer to take control of them and keep them safe!
