I think people buy guns for the same reason you buy a PS2. For fun. I enjoy shooting a rifle or a shotgun. I\'d never use it to rob a store or kill anything besides a deer or other game animals. I do, however, agree with some of the gun laws but the safety locks I don\'t. If a person is responsible, they\'d put a gun away safely and not keep it loaded and lock it so kids can\'t get to it. When I get a rifle of my own, I\'ll take the action out so my kids can\'t get to it and lock everything up and hide the key. However, there are some real dumbasses that leave their guns loaded and cabinets unlocked and thats how kids get killed (especially morons who put it in their sock drawer). I don\'t really agree with the safety locks either. Even the safety on a gun does fail. Although you should use it but making all of these complex locks will only complicate things. If you want a safety, the standard safety does the trick, but like I said, if you are concerned about kids, lock the damn thing up and not have it loaded.
