3-year-old boy fatally shot in the head after finding pink gun

63. "Basic gun safety should be taught in public schools"

No. Just no.

Setting aside that that this was 3 year old and your suggestion would be beyond useless, it is the gun owners who are responsible.

Prospective gun owners should have to complete a gun safety class before being allowed to acquire a gun (just like getting your driver's license).

Prospective gun owners should pay a meaningful fee to license their gun (just like registering your car).

Gun owners should have to pay a meaningful annual fee to renew their license (just like car owners), on a per gun basis (just like car owners).

Gun owners should be required to bring in their guns once per year to have them inspected to ensure they are still in safe working order, and pay a fee for this inspection (just like car owners getting their emmissions checked).

Gun owners should be required to purchase insurance to cover accidental mishaps (just like car owners).

Gun owners should have to renew their gun ownership license on a periodic basis, proving they are still capable of safely owning and operating the weapon (just like drivers licenses).

But fuck it, right? The answer is more guns and more guns and putting the burden on requiring school teachers to take time away from actual subjects so gun owners can feel better about their preciouses.
