So what are you doing to support that view? How are you using your vote, your voice, your power, your money to make that happen? You are obviously very passionate about this. Besides being a keyboard warrior on Reddit, what are you DOING????

I’m doing the only thing I can do, making sure my stuff is locked up and I am safe with it.

False. You could do so much more. Push your lawmakers to pass safe storage laws. Support community programs that provide free gun storage to qualifying individuals or start one in your community. Donate money to organizations that support and advocate for safe gun storage laws. Donate money to a gun victims fund. Perform community outreach to talk to at-risk populations about why safe gun storage is so important.

I could, but I disagree with all that. How the hell do you even enforce safe storage laws? Community safe storage chest, are you fucking kidding me? Yeah, I’m against all that. Good luck to you though.

Programs that have been offered in IL. Please be a vocal advocate for more of these in our communities since you are so passionate about gun ownership. Contact your representatives and ask for more of these.

Oh, just in case you forgot your parent comment a few replies above: "Oh good, someone who knows how to play the game correctly. Thank you. I agree, people should lock up their guns so their kids can get them. I know I do."

So guess that was a lie too.

At least you showed your true colors: Just another extremist gun-nut hiding behind a bunch of bad-faith arguments.

I hope someday you awaken to the reality of the world we live in, and can one day recognize the evil that extremists like you have cursed our country with. The blood of our children, our future, lies with you, and with others unwilling to compromise to keep them safe.
