I'm not in favor of more gun laws but every time I read about a toddler getting ahold of mommy or daddy's gun and shooting himself or another child, it makes me sick, and it makes me ask "what the hell was that gun owner thinking, keeping that loaded gun where his/her kid could get it?"

Like most of us here I can tell you exactly where every firearm I own is located and NONE of them are in a place where they can be accessed by a child.

The law is generally more "reactive" than "proactive." That is to say, legislators act on things that actually happen when their constituents start screaming "DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS!"
