I view my guns as tools to fill my freezer, nothing more, nothing less. I don't fetishize them but do appreciate fine craftsmanship. As Buzz states, we must be willing to accept people dying from firearm-related instances, whether that be suicide, homicide, children, minorities, etc. That's the price we pay for the right to have easy access to those firearms. I am not in favor of gun seizure but I think we can have a thoughtful discussion on 1)-is there a problem and 2-what can we do besides drawing lines in the sand. I think most of us here are thoughtful gun owners and believe in training, proper storage, etc. Anti-gun public sentiment will continue to get stronger as the long as the cold dead hands approach to gun ownership continues and we responsible gun owners will suffer.
