It only means that...
....responsible gun ownership has only been being taught to children in this country for a couple of hundred years, now. It's pretty traditional in many parts of this country. With pretty stellar results, as well. With the 300,000,000 + guns in this country...only a miniscule percentage of people actually cause harm to others with them, when not protecting themselves. We should be looking closer at hammers than rifles and shotguns, if we are looking to protect people. We have all seen the statistics that show more people are killed with hand tools, than with shotguns or rifles in this country.
The media really chooses to only report those random cases where something goes awry and someone accidentally kills someone with a gun. You very rarely hear about the deaths (which occur more frequently) by other means. Also....the media does not like to cover all of the stories that occur daily, where people protect themselves from
home invaders with their firearms (doesn't help their cause). Most of the gun related crimes are occuring in the areas and States that have the strongest gun control.
Let's put more laws on the books that won't be effective...or even enforced.
