There are so many stupid ass parents out there these days, just leaving guns around, or not taking the proper measures to secure them. My dad was big on guns, atleast 25 rifles/shotguns/handgune in his gun locker.. BUT he kept them safe and locked away.. I was always curious, always trying to get into his gun locker, as most kids would. But when you're looking at 2 thick padlocks on a big fucking steel cabinet, you know deep down inside you're never going to get into that thing. Thats how it was for me, i always tried, just to show my friends.. yea it was dumb but hey kids do dumb things.
Instead of keeping a gun in the drawer, get a safe. People are talking about "the gun was locked up" ill bet a grand that it was one of those worthless flimsy k-mart peice of shit gunlocker that uses a lock you wouldnt even trust to use on your luggage at an airport. A lot of people blame guns for these school shootings. I blame parents.
columbine kids and the rest of these school shooters.. theyre pussies. who cares if someone makes fun of you? roll with the punches.. dont shoot the school up. It's sad that people get picked on, but life goes on. I got picked on in highschool being the "indian kid going to an all white school" i had my fair share of confrontations.. i learned to deal with it and followed the saying 'what goes around comes around' as corny as it sounds..its true. One of the kids that always used to think he was a badass and started shit with me is now one of the guys giving my lexus free carwashes for life at the moterwerx dealership.. and i dont even have to tip the fucker

so yea what goes around comes around and kids need to realise that these days. Fuck the guns just hit your books and come out on top in the long run.
One of the fondest memories growing up was going to the range and shooting with my dad. But no mater how curious i was, no matter how badly i wanted to show my friends his stash of guns, I wasn't able to get into them without. If you can afford to have kids and afford to get guns, you can afford to get a decent safe or gun locker to keep them in.
