138. Here's a story about "unloaded" guns
I am anti gun. I'm not a big fan of the RKABA but, I can also see it's point. I'm not argue that right one way or another. This is about actual guns in the actual hands of actual children.

A buddy of mine keeps guns. Several, both pistols and shot guns. One day he came walking into the living room of his home with gun drawn and was acting foolishly with it. "Don't worry, it's not loaded." he says to me.

"Well, you now what, all guns are loaded. All the time. The only safe assumption about a gun is that it is loaded and you are acting foolishly with a gun in my presence." was my reply.

He kept playing with his gun and I left.

Several months later he comes to me and says "Man. I gotta tell you this. When we were getting ready to move out of that house I was cleaning my guns for the move and the shotgun went off. I could'a swornt that thing was un-loaded. I coulda died."

Dumb-ass.

These parents need a serius ass kicking in my mind.
