Gun Control Reform Activism

It's (more than) a little F'd up that we've gotten to the point where anything that even touches on guns needs to be a damned constitutional debate, high on rhetoric and short on results. This is a straightforward, common sense, issue.

Forget about "responsible gun ownership" and think "responsible parenting". Before you bring the baby home from the hospital, you put plastic plugs in your outlets, you put child-proof hooks on the cabinets under the sink, you throw away the old plastic bags, you secure the prescription and OTC meds... and you lock up the guns. I'm not saying you have to get rid of them completely, just lock them up. How hard is that? If you feel that your security requires getting to a gun fast, the industry makes biometric lock boxes that open by touching an authorized thumb to them. They cost less than a month of full coverage auto insurance.

Why does everything have to be us v. them?
