If we tried to meet in the middle, what could help more gun owners be responsible gun owners?
What we know about that recent school shooting is exactly the counter case. There’s no indication the parent was bad. Apparently the kid had some issues and the system and his parents failed him. However, how do you gift a kid an AR-15 and let him use and store it unsupervised? Especially how do you do this after a police visit that the kid made threats? There’s a lot to think about for this case but an important one is how did the parent think this was ok? Much more often than “good guy with gun” is “parent gave kid unsupervised use of gun”.
Clearly trusting that such a large population of gun owners are all responsible gun owners, is not working. Can not work. Can not work and too many people are being killed. Holding the parent responsible is a start but doesn’t make up for the lives lost, plus we want to prevent it, not just ruin more lives
Ima challenge your statement about "no indication the parent was bad." You yourself go on to explain how the parent purchases an automatic weapon for a kid who's had police visits for making threats... that's not bad? That's absolutely idiotic and insanely irresponsible. I'd go so far, even, to call it "bad". Hell, people die because of that "bad" decision.
That's a bad, bad parent in my book.
Jesus, how the fuck is your comment evenly split on up/down-votes? Shitty parenting is shitty parenting.
