"but how about adding something immediately useful: a gun owner registry available to the public online - something like those for sex offenders. I'm not equating gun owners with predatory perverts, but the model is helpful here; I want a searchable database I can consult to find out whether my kid can have a play date at your house."

My reply to the quote:

Keep your kid home, lady. It might be contagious.

Besides, if your level of intelligence is passed on genetically to your offspring, I don't want your kid near my place. Too many moving parts.

How about:

My kid can’t go to a friend’s house where the parents don’t own a gun. If they don’t care about protecting their own family, why and how would they protect my kid?
