I wanted to hunt and all I had was a Glock, I would hunt with a Glock.

Seriously though, the only thing that scares me about firearms are those hands that handle them without knowledge, safety or respect. I have a fairly large and diverse (from a firearms perspective) collection which includes a few pistols, a number of high power longarms and a Glock 17. I think it's awesome that this student had her photo with her handgun in her yearbook. I know many people who are well behaved and shoot firearms on a regular basis.

If someone doesn't care for firearms that is their business but the misinformation about them is so rampant. As a kid, I got picked on all the time at school but I never thought about solving my problems with a gun. In my opinion, the reason there are so many shootings has to do with the instant fame that come with it not a "love of the gun". An individual who really loves guns will not use them to harm others except in defense.

Hate any puke for their political views, fine with me, but not for teaching their kids firearms safety at a young age. On my 9th birthday, I will never forget it, my dad took me shooting for the first time. That was 1967, been shooting ever since.
