They want to require trigger locks and safes that render a weapon useless for home protection. They also want to jail gun owners who refuse.

Kids are clever. They find your keys, your stashes, etc. Better to have well disciplined & trained kids.

public school has ruined everyone. "en loco parentis" was meant to be a legal principle, not a societal value.
