    That's good trigger discipline, those kids appear to be trained well.

    I'm guessing they aren't loaded either.

    Don't care that the kids have guns, but daddy posing them up to look menacing with his guns...incredibly disturbing... A GUN IS NOT A TOY. IT IS NOT TO BE HANDLED IN A FRIVOLENT MANNER....EVER.
    I was raised safely around guns and this was rule number one...this sort of disrespect teaches kids that guns need not be taken seriously, and as a gun advocate you should be condemning this, not covering your delight with justifications like "trigger control" and "unloaded"
    TREAT ALL FIREARMS AS LOADED AND CHAMBERED AT ALL TIMES. Again, this is gun safety 101. That's how people shoot themselves in the face right there...
    NEVER POINT A GUN AT SOMEONE'S HEAD. EVER.
    Another flagrant violation of firearm safety...
    And you wonder why we question the phrase "responsible gun owner"
    you should be denouncing this vehemently!

    "well trained"
    is the girl in the middle, the one with two guns pointed at her head, even potty trained yet? Jeepers she looks not even a day over 3! Well trained??
    Let's hope she doesn't remember this, and try to recreate it before she goes to kindergarten.

    This is the mentality reasonable people argue against. To me... this embodies the absolutely ridiculous nature of the gun situation in the USA. When I say 'this'... I refer to the supporting comment Unsung- one of the more well-versed gun enthusiasts on these pages- makes defending this absurd picture and what it tends to portray.

    I've said it before... the inmates are running the asylum.

    I tend to not get emotional about a stupid picture, but we should ban chairs for taking part in this evil event.

    Oh contrare! It was your emotion in loving guns that let you miss a chance at making yourself, and your cause, look reasonable and to lend credence to the safe gun owner idea. But you missed it, I understand being on the defensive, you got it coming from all angles.
    No chair ban, in fact, let's not ban anything let's get that darwinism going and have gun owners proove they can fire from atop a chair to renew their licenses lol

    I am still pissed this picture of me got posted. That was for my match.com profile and no where else. In my defense I am fucking awesome at guitar hero and just wanted everyone to know.

    How do you even find a picture like that? Actually I don't want to know, my eyes are burning.

    On the defensive? Pretty funny. I think I can handle you guys, even with my limited time and means to get here.

    I'm still wanting to know why an AR-15 scares you guys so much. It's been proven to almost never be used in crime, what gives?

    They are concerned for their kids. It's only a matter of time before the next clump of grieving parents must come to terms with the fact that unrestricted gun ownership trumps public safety.

    What scares you into thinking you need one?

    Do you advocate banning all firearms? Or just the ones that get used to kill people in less than 1% of the time?

    ...
    I don't know... i'm not a self-professed well-trained, sharp shooting, law abiding and responsible gun owner... i have been around, handled and fired many weapons in my life... but, I was under the impression that 'Well Trained' gun handlers NEVER point a weapon at another person... loaded or not.
    And 'guessing' that the guns are not loaded... is that considered responsible?

    Just the ones designed for military use that the public accesses for pleasure.

    Hey... I know they're really cool and all, but so are bazookas. It doesn't mean Joe Blow should be able to go the Big 5 Sporting Goods and pull one off the racks during the next 20% off sale like he can do right now with the AR-15.

    Don't worry about it. This is all just talk. The gun loving nutjobs have bullied the American public into accepting what they shouldn't. You have nothing to fear. And... if worse did ever come to worse for you... from the sounds of things... you have a wall of lead to protect your interests.

    Just so you know the AR-15 is a civilian model, not the M-16 military version. There is a drastic difference.
