    Yeah I wasn’t raised around guns by anyone in my family (the aunt that had a gun was seen as trashy for it among other things), but as an adult I think it’s irresponsible to raise a child in America without teaching basic gun safety. I hate that it’s like that, but it is. There are a lot of “responsible gun owners” who have kids and no gun safe.

      Yeah.

      They are so commonplace that… if you would teach your kids to say, stay away from and do not touch used needles at a park or on a sidewalk?

      You should probably also teach your young kids at least Eddie Eagle level of gun safety, regardless of whether or not there’s a gun in your household.
