Do you really think making the legal age to even TOUCH a firearm at 21 is really going to prevent this? What next, you have to be 21 to own a pressure cooker? Fertilizer? Diesel fuel?
What I find disparaging is that people really don’t believe kids can be mature. And the kids know this, and milk it overtly or covertly.
discouraging, not disparaging...
Sorry, IMHO it should be 21 ...and this has been my opinion since I was 21.
