From the thread '8 year old boy kills father and father's friend'. On one hand, yes; people should be able to defend their homes and their families, or go hunting, or do whatever they please. On the other hand, things like this happen. Kids find their parents' guns and either kill themselves, or kill other people. What kind of example does it teach your children when you keep guns laying around? Basically, that guns are okay. I think parents need to use that selectively, teach them to not use violence as a first option, etc. Opinions?
