Not taking precautions that they kids can't get unsupervised access to the gun(s) is bad. Homeowners are well advised to take a loaded gun out at night, if they live in a thinly policed area, even wear the gun around home during the day in such areas if there is a potential threat from wild animals or dangerous people, any other time, the guns should be locked away in a secure gun cabinet that ONLY the parents know the combination to - that situation should remain in place until the kids are older and may be home alone, and are unlikely to suicide themselves.

primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
