Gun safety
This seems to me to be redundant but apparently it is not. If you have children and own a firearm you have certain obligations: you must protect the kids from the weapon and the weapon from the kids. By this … Continue reading

Do not get a firearm unless you are willing to use it. Many people go out and get weapons with the thought that they will just waive them like magic wands to make bad people go away. It doesn’t work … Continue reading
