While I don't own a gun (I work in a federal building and you can't carry a gun into a federal building). I strongly believe in EVERY man and woman's right to own and carry a gun for self protection or protecting a loved one.
As a child I was taught to respect guns and never to misuse them or treat them like toys. This is something I believe every child should be taught so there would be little or no inncidents.
Instead of punishing law abiding citizens by taking away thier 2nd amendment rights, I think gun safety and respect should be taught. That is my opinion.
