Your imaginary scenarios are entirely irrelevant. I am commenting on what YOU said about the universe you tell us YOU actually live in. Talk about that:

This is irresponsible behavior and condoned by NO ONE. Please don't allow children access to loaded guns.
😂😂Still won't answer the question because you know I'm correct and if you answer the way you actually feel, everyone will know you're a KAREN! The tree stand story is my life. We couldn't afford expensive metal tree stands so we would steal wood from construction sights at night and build tree stands as high as we could. Don't be upset because I had an eventful childhood. Hunting with guns is huge in the Americas. You should try it, Marcus. But I would suggest trading your pink vagina hat for a blaze orange hat 🤣😂🤣😂.
Wow. Okay, then. You are really in a panic aren't you? You've frantically introduced at least half a dozen increasingly complex scenarios, all to cover up this really, REALLY irresponsible thing you posted:

Do you think it's dangerous my kids have access to weapons? The guns are loaded and a round is in the chamber.
i don't know if you're all flustered because this is true and you know how irresponsible it is, or because it's not true and you're embarrassed to have posted something so utterly stupid.

Either way, it just confirms my understanding of contrarian trolls. Their only purpose is to disrupt conversation, never to legitimately participate.

Bottom line: This post from Atlanticmike is an example of irresponsible behavior and condoned by NO ONE. Please don't allow children access to loaded guns.

That's because they couldn't afford double French doors, a home security system, and two guard dogs in a gated community. What else was he supposed to do?

Anyone who has guns for self-protection like A-Mike does knows that if the gun isn't readily accessible if not on your person, the chances of protecting yourself or family during a home invasion is very low. Even with accessibility, your chances still aren't great because the invader has a supreme advantage -- the element of surprise. That one time it happens in 30 years could be in broad daylight or three AM. If you're just a little two slow, that's the deadliest scenario because if the invader sees you going for your gun, he's got no choice.

It's amazing Marcus is still alive. Gun locked up in a cabinet with trigger lock and everything.

re: kevin / PG

I personally know two people very well who killed themselves with guns. One guy was totally unhinged and bragged about his shutgun regularly, and the gun was for self-defense and chest puffing only. I don't think he'd ever shot a clay pigeon.

The other guy I'm pretty sure didn't own any guns an certainly wasn't into them. He got a rifle from somebody's house he was staying with family (he was well into adulthood) and the family definitely weren't into guns, just happened to have a couple.

People don't kill people. Guns do.
I agree 100%!! Just the other day I saw a gun sprout legs and start walking down the street. I pulled over and asked the gun where she was going and she told me there was this guy that she wanted to shoot so she was walking to his house. Luckily I convinced her to hop in the truck and go home with me. Marcus would be proud of me!! When I got home I locked the gun in the safe! But every once in a while I hear her knocking on the safe wanting out. I'm scared to open the door!! Those rogue guns with the ability to kill people all by themselves are the worst.

Great description. So... as a self-defense tactic, the response is to leave the guns loaded, and teach the children living in the house how to access the guns at their discretion. (I used the word discretion, but "access by children" and "at their discretion" don't really go together, do they?)

Not a lot of thinking went into that plan. But it does explain why 5000 children a year die by guns.

Mike would be criticized by virtually any gun instructor too. His carelessness is the reason why children are dying. His haven't died yet, and God forbid they do, but if they did I'm sure he'd still be like this idiot:

Sarasota father who accidentally shot his son: 'The gun didn't kill my boy. I did.'

Clearly they do, as it has been brought up twice now.

😂🤣😂🤣. My kids and wife shoot with an instructor. Their current instructor doesn't go anywhere without a gun. He has the exact same biometric safes I use. His kids all know how to shoot and have access to loaded firearms if there's an intruder. Your PROGRESSIVE fairy tale is just that, a PROGRESSIVE fairy tale. Of course the videos I supplied of children shooting intruders iswritten off because they are an inconvenient truth in the land of PROGRESSIVISM.

Just for you and Marcus/canpakes/Karen, when I get home, I'm going to get my youngest daughter, grab 4 or 5 Ar15s lay them out on the kitchen table so we can strip em down, clean em, then put them back together. Then!!! I'm going to let her load 27 rounds in each magazine and insert the magazine in the weapon before we put them back in the safe. MERICA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸!!!!

Totally agree. It's insane that anyone would even think to argue that children should have unfettered access to loaded weapons.
