Notes from the Resistance
CDC shooter had police contacts over suicide, used father’s guns in attack… “All indications in our investigation was that they were secure and that he forced his way into the safe that contained the weapons,” said Hosey, adding that the suspect did not have a key to the gun safe: “He broke into it,” Hosey said.

We obviously need commonsense gun safe safety laws.
Police searched the home and a vehicle parked outside and found 12 guns. Many of the firearms were loaded and unsecured, and easily accessible to children. All of the guns were owned by Marshaun Jr.’s father, Marshaun Futrell Sr. [More]
Do you need a better reason to impose “lock up your safety” laws on you and me?

April Fools!
People in the home reported being woken up by the sound of a gunshot. They found the 4-year-old and a 2-year-old child at the foot of Young’s bed with the weapon. Young, who admitted to keeping the gun under her pillow every night, was the only person in the home who owned a firearm, police said. [More]
And she slept through that? Anybody do a blood test on her?
Tell me this isn’t the best reason ever to force “safe storage laws” on you and me.

Look for a dramatic decrease in prohibited persons passing out with guns left on the coffee table… it’s the law!

“I really want y’all to remember D’Angelo for who he was and not what happened… [More]
But what happened is exactly what the prohibitionists will use to force lock-up-your-safety edicts on the rest of us.
And what does it mean, “Police don’t know where the child found the unsecured gun”? Did they ask the person urging everyone to forget about “what happened”?
If these people did journalism, we’d have the backstory.
Trump’s pick for Surgeon General caused tragic gun accident as child that left dad shot dead: report [More]
She served up the Covid KoolAid, so it’s fair to wonder how she’ll use her considerable influence to weigh in on lock-up-your-safety edicts…
And will she join her medical colleagues in prescribing hearing protection?
Seattle cops somhow lose 23 guns — and have no idea where they went… [More]
Oh, someone has a very good idea…
And if this happened to you under Seattle’s “Responsible Storage Law“…?
No worries. Department spokesflack Patrick Michaud says “We’re going to do our best to ensure that we do better.”
Now there’s a solid pledge!
Just goes to show you though, all these years and I’ve never lost one. ‘Course then, I don’t have all that professional training…

Georgia school shooting stirs debate about safe storage laws for guns [More]
There’s a debate?
Someone is actually taking the position that morons, losers, and criminals will obey one-size-fits-all edicts to lock firearms and ammunition up separately and calling that “commonsense gun safety”?
Discouraging women from defending themselves with the greatest equalizer yet devised and encouraging ignorance and fear is a major part of the gun prohibitionists’ unified propaganda effort. [More]
Why would anyone who’s not a willfilly ignorant dolt listen to bleating incompetents about anything?

They were probably out of this guy’s price range anyway.
I hope the gunmakers defending against enemies foreign and domestic take heed and have their lawyers introduce evidence that CPSC hasn’t issued recalls against their products.
A Michigan man was charged Tuesday under the state’s new law requiring safe storage of guns after his 2-year-old daughter shot herself in the head with his revolver the day after the law took effect. [More]
I’d think a responsible j0urnalist would put the part about him being a prohibted person felon right up in the headline. Of COURSE he doesn’t obey any “gun laws.”
Care to tell us more about him– and why he was out?
And why the photo of the everyman-looking professor instead of the idiot “dad”?
Safe storage practices are done by the responsible. Safe storage laws don’t change that.

URGENT ACTION ITEM- SB 83 is a BAD BILL- Urge the Senate Committee to Vote NO on Gun Control- SB 83 by Senator Todd Weiler is another seriously flawed “Safe Storage” scheme. [More]
I don’t know Utah politics or if calling the Democrat on the list or Republican supportsrs of Mitt Romney is a waste of time, but if you’re from there and know the lay of the land, do what you think is best.
I see this Weiler putz is a Vichycon who also supports red flag due process violations.
How is it Utahns keep supporting such frauds?
Beginning Feb. 13, 2024, any person who lives with a minor or those who know reasonably that a minor will come into their home must store their firearms safely. [More]
There’s no way to enforce this, of course, except after the fact, and the potential that something might happen is hardly a deterrent to people whose entire life history seems based on bad decisions. Case in point:
The parents of a 5-year-old boy who fatally shot himself with an unsecured gun over the weekend have been charged, officials announced. [More]
If it hadn’t been a gun it could have been anything with morons like this:
…five children were left unsupervised in the house at the time of the shooting, including an 8-year-old, two 7-year-olds, a 4-year-old and the 5-year-old who shot himself.
And now we have a leading “commonsense gun safety law” spokesman!
Hey… any chance we could sue the manufacturer…?
We can pass child safety laws for seat belts and medicine caps. Why not gun storage? [More]
This coming from the side that lets their children find and play with their monster dildos…
