[QUOTE=Katatonic717;46795394]There's four? I thought it was three. 1: Treat the gun like it's loaded at all times. 2: Finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire 3: Do not point the gun at anything you do not want to fuck up. What's the fourth one?[/QUOTE] 1. Treat firearms as if they are loaded 2. Finger off the trigger until ready to fire 3. Be aware of your target and what is beyond it 4. Don't point the gun at anything you're not willing to destroy

[QUOTE=Teddybeer;46797160]The only thing that bothers me with gun laws in the Netherlands is and how we handle thing related to them is total crap. For most not wanting or lacking the complete interest to join a gun club (list and list of rules) or what not most people will just see them in pictures, movies, attached to a police officers belt or video games. Great and all with how little guns are here (well the underworld is cleaning up here with 17 deaths by AK, recent capture of dozens of them with 36 grenades, but hey blackmarket). But at times criminals just dump their guns after they don't want it anymore and some of these places include where kids play. So if a kid finds it, the kid will assume its a toy as the real thing is "illegal" and only bad people have them, and if an adult finds it (like me for example) we have no knowledge on how to keep the thing safe till the cops arrive.[/QUOTE] A good rule of thumb for when you don't know how to safely handle a firearm: [b]don't fucking touch it.[/b] Contrary to popular belief, firearms posess neither sentience nor consciousness, and as such are incapable of firing without either a user setting them off, or being stored in conditions that could ignite a loaded round. If you don't know what you're doing then do us all a favor and just don't do it, fools feigning expertise gets people hurt, and starts most anti gun movements.

[QUOTE=Snoberry Tea;46795163]Also I love how the kid says "I don't feel safe with a gun in my home." - Well it's not [i]your[/i] home it's your mom and dad's home you little shit.[/QUOTE] If you are a kid living with your parents the house might belong to them, but it is still your home and I am pretty sure most people would refer to it as such.

[QUOTE=ASIC;46798427]If you are a kid living with your parents the house might belong to them, but it is still your home and I am pretty sure most people would refer to it as such.[/QUOTE] People don't know the difference between home and house. It doesn't need to be legally your house to be your home.

I own a gun but I never use. I've used it like twice. I wish I could find a gun buyback program around me cause I'd sell mine

[QUOTE=proboardslol;46799488]I own a gun but I never use. I've used it like twice. I wish I could find a gun buyback program around me cause I'd sell mine[/QUOTE] Pawn it. Pawn shops who deal in guns are required to do a background check in all purchases. You get rid of the gun, and the next legal owner can enjoy it. Win-win.

Ergo you live there, you call it home. But unless it's your house, you have no say on what goes on inside it unless it's illegal.

You'll get a fair price, you won't get gypped, and it'll go to someone who will use it, not get needlessly destroyed. Or, better yet, take some classes, get proficient with it, and use it for self defense.

God [I]DAMN.[/I] I cannot remember when a video made me this fucking mad. Fuck. It scares me to know that shit like this airs on public TV in the US. It scares me even more that shit like this just might catch on with some people.

[QUOTE=Coyoteze;46792342]hey kid [t]http://i.imgur.com/MRxbE0w.png[/t] you forgot to bring you [I]trigger discipline[/I] as well[/QUOTE] You see, ivan... On-topic, though, this is how we get out guns taken away. You never, ever, EVER bring a gun to school. Especially for something as stupid as this.

I kind of wish she'd put it in the video for the kid to bring the gun to the cops so that the cops could have taken the kid back home, given the parent their gun back, and the parent could have learned their kid some learnin'

A few simple thoughts on this: -It will be met with the same reaction that every PSA gets from teenagers...uproarious, mocking laughter and eye-rolling. -They are obviously just attention whoring anyway. -No kid in the entire United States lies awake at night thinking about how he's not safe because Mom has a gun in her drawer. Kids think guns are awesome. -If you keep your gun in your freaking underwear drawer...you deserve to get jacked.

It's a .22 Ruger Mk iii so I don't see it being used for self defense really (though I wouldn't wanna be shot by it), and I don't really need it for self defense since there's like, no crime where I live.

I would like to point out a few things though... A 22 wouldn't be most criminals first choice in handguns. Background check laws are only followed by law abiding citizens. That is to say- it would take a special kind of criminal to legally purchase a gun they intended to use for a crime.
