[QUOTE="Whisky, post: 334281, member: 661"] I'm playing devils advocate here because I don't really know what the answer is to securing firearms within ones home....and maybe the below is a stupid analogy. I had my house broken into and a suppressed pistol was stolen. It was sitting on my dining room table. If that gun is used to commit a school shooting, am I then negligent because it was not locked up? I would say the chances of theft from an unknown person are greater than the chances my kids will shoot a school up. Where/how do you draw the line of negligence? My kids are still young, but at some point soon I will need to address the unsecured firearms in my home. Once the kids reach a certain age I am hopeful I can relax a little on gun security. Growing up my dads guns were in a cheap wood cabinet with the key always located on the top. Nothing bad happened....Shit, at 15 years, old I had guns in my vehicle for hunting, while on school grounds. [/QUOTE]
