We believe everyone has the right to defend their home against intruders. There are certain precautions that one needs to take when owning a firearm. You are responsible for the fire arm at all times. You must protect yourself and others against injury or death from misuse of the firearm. You can't make simple mistakes like leaving your firearm unattended while having children and other in the house. Children are very inquisitive, and love to touch things. If they pick up the firearm and it isn't on safety, there goes another one of those simple mistakes. If you have to leave your firearm unattended you need to make sure it is on safety mode, although it should never be unattended. Safe and secure storage of your firearm is one of the most important responsibilities of firearm ownership. You must always secure your firearm and ammunition separately so they are not accessible to children and or other unauthorized person. You need to keep all these things in mind before purchasing any type of handgun.

Probably a drive-by, but not trolls. I didn't see any intention to cause disruption or argument.

"Troll: A person who posts a deliberately provocative message to the forum with the intention of causing disruption and/or argument with or without contributing to the content of the thread." - Source: http://www.firearmstalk.com/forums/f97/announcement-firearmstalk-forum-rules.html

Humorous Safety Rules for government :
1) Criminals are dangerous and should be locked up .
2) Any penalty for leaving a gun accessible should apply to leaving a power tool , farm machine or swimming pool accessible .
3) If a shooting range is shut down for safety reasons, a golf course should be shut down if a golf ball lands on a nearby residence or lot .
4) Schools : Lock up the kids and lock up their toys separately .
